A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Geneva, IL

Being about 3 weeks now that most States have ordered the shelter-in-place rule, would you agree to an extension of that order for the next month or so? Would you agree to sectors of the country to open gradually? How will this affect you personally?

There Is A New Injectable Currently Being Tested In Trials. Would You Change Your Current Regiment To This Treatment, If Approved?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Geneva, IL

An injectable two-drug regimen of cabotegravir and rilpivirine administered every 2 months is noninferior to the same injection received monthly, according to results from the phase 3 ATLAS-2M trial. The phase 3 ATLAS study previously demonstrated that receiving injections of the investigational regimen every 4 weeks is noninferior to a daily three-drug oral regimen for the treatment of HIV and is overwhelmingly preferred by patients.

A myHIVteam Member

My Dr talked to me about it. I'm happy with my pill. An injection for me would be a NO!
