Atripla (efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir): I've been on Atripla for about 2 years with very good results! The only thing that is slightly annoying are the food restrictions, which can interfere with going to bed when I want to because I work a varied schedule and sometimes don't get a chance to eat dinner until late and the way I feel after taking it varies too much to risk taking it during the day or early evening. However if that's the only problem then I'll take it over having to take multiple doses any day! 2 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Atripla (efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir): I have been taking Atripla before I go to bed for about 3 years and have had great success with it. I don't experience any side effects and my viral load is undetectable and CD4 count has risen significantly. I have never skipped a does and would advise anyone considering taking Atripla to get a daily pill tray or beeper to remind you to take your next dose. 4 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you?

Atripla (efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir): I've been on it for 2 years and the side effects were minimal at first but after a year I began to experience servere insomnia and my brain wouldn't shut down at night. I lost a great deal of sleep and now my doctor has me taking dyphenhidromine to counteract these side effects but it isn't working well. I keep my appointments with my HIV doctor every 6 months so he can do blood workups and check everything. My viral load is undectable and CD4 count is around 700-800. 23 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Atripla (efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir): Very easy to follow recommended dosage and adherence with very little side effects. Have had very successful results with regard to undetectable viral load and relatively high T-Cell count for a long period of time. 23 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you?
