I've been on Emtricitabine/tenofovir 133-200mg Tabs for a few months now as part of my PrEP regimen. I've had some side effects, but nothing too serious. I'm curious to hear from others who are taking this medication. What side effects have you experienced? How long did they last? Also, how do you manage them? I've heard a lot about kidney issues, and I'm a bit worried. I've got to get regular blood tests, but I'm wondering if anyone has had any issues and what the doctor did about it? I also want to know if anyone has experienced any long-term effects. It's always good to be informed, especially when it comes to your health! I also want to know if anyone has any tips on how to stay consistent with taking the medication. I'm doing okay so far, but I know consistency is key. Any advice would be appreciated!
