Side Effects
- I had some horrible side effects the first few weeks I was on Sustiva. Since then they've cleared up almost completely, and the treatment caused a huge drop in my viral load. So hang in there!
- Could Sustiva be the reason I've become unfocused, lethargic and less productive in the mornings?
- I've been on Atripla (Sustiva + Truvada) for over two months, and I just started to develop blotchy, itchy rash. Could this be a side effect from the meds? And, if so, why did it take so long to appear?
- I am currently taking Sustiva + Truvada, and my liver enzymes are doubling with every blood test. What should I do?
- I used to love my sleep, but now, after taking Sustiva for five years, I have been having problems with insomnia. What do you suggest?
- I just started taking Sustiva, and I'm suffering from slight insomnia and weird emotions late at night. How long do these side effects usually last?
- Are the side effects of Sustiva only active in the sleeping hours after a bedtime dose, or will the effects dull my mental reflexes throughout the following day?
- I'm on Sustiva + Truvada and, at times, feel depressed and negative. How does one differentiate between clinical depression and simply situational depression? Could the Sustiva be to blame for the intensity of these emotions?
