Health / Re: HIV Positive And About To Start Medication Help! by Saviour77: 7:01am On Aug 29, 2019
RSunny:
I am a social worker who works in a facility where HIV clients are attended to.
This drug you mentioned is a new drug which is usually given to men whose viral load are suppressed and women who have passed childbearing age. It should be taken at nights, when you are through with the work for each day and ready to retire for the night.
Significant improvement is usually noticed among people who adhere to this drug as they usually put on weight.
If you can adhere to your treatment, you can attain viral load suppression of below 1,000 copies or even leas than 20.
Cheers.
thanks a lot, the person that gave me the drug said all this, but she insist I take it in the morning which I no maintaining that time at morning will be difficult and prefer night that the side effect of the drugs can make me not to sleep at night .I don't know if its general side effect and my CD4 count and viral load I don't know.

Health / HIV Positive And About To Start Medication Help! by Saviour77: 4:25pm On Aug 28, 2019
Please Nairaland doctors I need your advice please, Collected my test result and it was positive, I don't have any plans of telling my parent because they can't handle it, I want to battle it till I become undetectable. Contracted the virus June after a rough outing (my first time) after that encounter all connection and lines we communicate with was not reachable ,felt sick and decided to do the test and was positive after 2month now I always feel weak ,shaky , I have done the test prior to that time and was negative. So I was directed to a government health care where I can start treatment immediately because going by the hospital I was confirmed to be positive I might not start treating even after two weeks because of the time to see doctor proceses etc, so I was given the drug they said it a new one Acriptega contain dolutegravir/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate . And it should be taken in the morning my concern, I seriously need quide please. I would prefer taking it at night but the person that attended to me said i should take it in the morning because of side effect,
