Citenvir
UpdatedI need help with the side effects and any other information on Citenvir as ARV and also the effects of Purbac Double Strength used together with Citenvir
Member I ve started using This tablet 6 weeks ago but I ve felt no side effects, I think its better if you take it with food. What I ve noticed is dizziness after an hour, you become ok! Good luck
Thank you Nossi, I was told I must take it at night so I take them before I get into bed. I hope i feel good soon cause I'm so tired all of the time
Hi i would like to knw if its fine to use citenvin if im hiv positive and pregnant.?
Haai I would like to knw it the Citenvir pill an ARV? My boyfrnd is taking it but never told me why
Based on my research Citenvir tablets contain 600mgs of Efavirenz + 200mgs of Emtricitabine + 300mgs of Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
This combination of meds is used to treat HIV infection. Apparently it works by reducing the amount of HIV in your blood stream.
For product verification, the manufacturer of this med is listed as Novagen Pharma
As far as side effects are concerned, you can learn more about this drug on the page for Citenvir Details. Just scroll down to the section on 'Side effects' for a list of common symptoms.
@Angelface - Before starting any new medication, you should probably discuss its safety with your doctor first. Taking Efavirenz in and of itself is said to cause liver problems in some individuals. However you'd be significantly increasing your risk of that by taking other medications (like Purbac) that also heavily impact the liver; namely the Sulfamethoxazole in it.
I hope this bit of info helps!

@lala (post #13),
You should talk with your doctor regarding your concerns about continuing follow up visits, since the medication seems to be working so well for you. I think they only recommend follow ups to periodically see how your body responds to the medication more so than anything.
@Mfundo (post #12),
All three of the active ingredients in Citenvir (efavirenz + emtricitabine + tenofovir) list "rashes" as a general side effect on the site for the US National Library of Medicine. So you may have to discuss this with your doctor if the symptoms have become too bothersome or severe. He/she may recommend trying something else instead if the rash doesn't go away on its own overtime.
@Noni (post #11),
The warning label for this medication notes that you should not become pregnant while taking Citenvir, as the precautions suggest that Efavirenz (one of the main ingredients in Citenvir) may harm the fetus.
