I was recently prescribed Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fum to treat HIV-1. It's a once-daily medication that's supposed to help reduce the viral load and boost my CD4 count. The doctor went over the side effects, but I wanted to hear from others who have been on this med for a while. What are the most common side effects you've dealt with? Are there any tips for managing them? More importantly, how has this medication impacted your life overall? I'm nervous about potential liver issues and severe reactions. Any insights or advice would be appreciated. I want to make sure I'm prepared for whatever comes my way.
