First Line Treatment

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
New Brunswick, NJ

I hear about first line treatment second line treatment and third line treatment. What does that mean? I’m on biktarvy is that first line treatment?

A myHIVteam Member

Just to be clear , the two drugs that are keeping me undetectable, do so, as they were completely new agents, when I first started them. So even though I had more or less total drug resistant HIV in… read more

Switching From Genvoya To Prezcobix And Tivicay

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
San Antonio, TX

Hey all! I have been on Genvoya since my diagnosis for more than a year. It seemed to do the job but I had some pretty intense side affects, namely depression diarrhea, muscle and joint soreness. So my doctor just switched me to Prezcobix and Tivicay and I'm just starting them today.

Can anyone tell me your experiences with these 2 drugs combined? Even if it's negative I'd like feedback so I know what to expect. Any feedback is appreciated.

A myHIVteam Member

Didnt know you could take more than one hiv med?

Anyone On Juluca Or Its Components Endurant And Tivicay?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Fayetteville, GA

Is anyone out there on Juluca? Biktarvy is a definite NO as Genvoya almost killed me and my current two pill combo Prezcobix and Isentress has to go. Just been doing my research as my natural course was derailed by a nasty viral infection so I’m looking to get as much of these toxins out of my regimen and Juluca is the first with only 2. Thanks everyone💫

A myHIVteam Member

Yes, there are people who have taken Tivicay (Dolutegravir) and Edurant (Rilpivirine):

- Tivicay (Dolutegravir): 1017 people have indicated they have taken Tivicay
- Edurant (Rilpivirine): 65 people… read more

More Then 1 Pill A Day?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
New Brunswick, NJ

After looking at past posts I see that some people take more then one pill a day. I’m new to this but I thought with the first class drugs that are on the market biktarvy,dovato etc 1 pill a day will keep you undetectable. Is it because some people are not getting the new meds. Or they have a lot of drug resistance from past drug combinations . I know in the beginning people were taking like 5 to 10 pills a day . God bless you that must have been hard. I hate taking one pill a day. Can anyone… read more

A myHIVteam Member

I take 2 pills a day. One pill has two drugs in it.
In the past I've taken multiple pills

Genvoya

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Wildomar, CA

My neuropathy has calmed down from back in the day of all the "D" meds that triggered it in the first place. I will be switching to this med as soon as the Atripla runs out

A myHIVteam Member

Genvoya did help with the neuropathy, but it has killed my heart so I’m switching to Prezcobix. In my research I am finding that Emtricitabine is likely the culprit and unfortunately for me it’s in… read more

Are Single Tablet Once Daily Regimes Safe For People With More Or Less Total Drug Resistance To All Classes Of HIV Treatments

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Brighton, England, United Kingdom

I had more or less, complete drug resistance to all known classes of HIV drugs back in 2004. However I was eligable for brand new experimental HIV drugs which had never been used before and only tested on Rats. These brand new agents finally made me undetectable after 3 months of taking them. The only problem is, I have to spread the doses throughout the day and night , due to an drug/drug and drug/food interaction,which effectively means its a 4 times daily regime. My Doctor has now offered… read more

Pancreatitis

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Savannah, GA

I have had two attacks of pancreatitis due to hiv meds, have anyone else had this problem. The meds I was taking truvada in 2017 and precobix in 2020.

A myHIVteam Member

I suspect that my pancreatitis has been caused by Truvada and Nevirapene. How do you know that your meds were the cause and not other things like eg alcohol?

Anyone Else Having Issues Maintaning A Undetectable Viral Load?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Savannah, GA

I started my treatment 2 years ago on Truvada and Tivicay and within 30 days went from 150,000 down to 150. The doctor was amazed. My loading fluctuated between undetectable and 40. I ended up switching doctors and she added Prescobix and it made my loading shoot up to 180. After two months and it not going down, she now has me on Triumeq and it is slowly bringing it back down. I've been on it for almost 6 months and we are waiting to see if it will go undetectable and stay there. I just had a… read more

Was Anything Decided If Particular HIV Meds Are Beneficial Against Covid?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Seattle, WA

This topic was discussed during the course of the virus. Wondered if there ever was any scientific evidence to support it, and what HIV meds. I've been completely vaccinated and had my booster. But now seeing another Covid variant emerging out of South Africa and spreading fast to border countries, I figure we need all the protection we can get as immune compromised individuals.

A myHIVteam Member

I would be sure and ask your doctor. I currently take two pills a day. My doctor said I could miss up to a week with no worries. That said, I have never done that, but it's still good to know if I… read more
