What Medicine Do You Take?

I have no idea why or how but according to my viral load test my VL went from undetectable to 93. I have never missed my biktarvy. None of it makes sense.

My doctor mentioned possibly switching from biktarvy to something else to see if another medication would “jump start” my cd4. Now she may really want to since my VL is increasing.

I have been on Dovato for over a year, my vl is always undetectable but my CD4 has dropped twice below 200 so they added Dapsome and it raises my CD4. Hope this helps

Biktarvy - Anyone Getting Side Effects Or Bad Effects From It? It Gave Me Bad Energy Draining And Some Dizziness.

Biktarvy - Anyone getting side effects or bad effects from it? It gave me bad energy draining and some dizziness

Biktarvy Ringing In Ears Side Effect?

Started taking Biktarvy in August and immediately had ringing in the ears. Has anyone experienced this while taking Biktarvy? It’s not listed as a side effect. Thinking of changing to Juluca.

I too have experienced ear ringing. Not every day, but for 2 or 3 days ringing then 2 or 3 days no ringing.

What Medication Do You Take?

So, I ask this because it lets us all know about other medications available and reviews on them. I understand everyone is different and side effects may vary, but I'm asking specifically about your experience with the medication. Thank you for sharing/responding and have a blessed day.

P.S. - Does anyone know if there any HIV medications that have weight loss as a side effect?!

2. How do you like it/ How well does it work?
3. Side Effects?
4. Would you… read more

Body Issues

Is it true that Biktarvy might change your body complexion? I heard it can make you top heavy

Missing 3 Doses Of Biktarvy.... What To Do?

I am outside currently in Russia and had some medication stolen from a hotel room. Through some contacts here I tried to find some meds but actually there is a huge shortage of meds here. So it is Wednesday and I took my last pill of Biktary. I land back in the U.S. on Sunday evening and should to immediately have pills waiting for me. But will miss 3 doses.

Is Biktary a forgiving drug? How much danger am I in at becoming detectable? Drug resistance?

Thanks
