Complera (emtricitabine / rilpivirine / tenofovir): After 3 1/2 weeks of using Complera, no side effects to speak of. Remember to always take Complera with a meal and a glass of water. Get a pill box from your Dr or pharmacist to help manage the ritual of daily pill taking.

Complera (emtricitabine / rilpivirine / tenofovir): This is my first medication for HIV. Though I have always had a strong immune system (CDA >700, Viral Load < 200, at worst), my N.P recommended that I should start a regimen, and the only requirement I had for her is that its a once-a-day pill. As a busy college student trying to complete his first degree, the last thing I want to be prisoner to is my HIV. I have noticed absolutely no change in my body other than I am happier than I have ever been since being infected. But I have always used a pill case (though I am only 20 yrs old) for fish oil and multivitamins (Dietetics Major). So, I had no concern about adding just one more pill in there. Guess the hardest thing is getting a 500 kcal meal in my busy mornings. Keep strong!

Complera (emtricitabine / rilpivirine / tenofovir): Have been on it a week but so far, no side effects, no weird dreams, no loss of appetite or dizziness or sleepiness. Too early to report effects on viral load but mine was low to start with and a high CD4. So maybe a great alternative to ATRIPLA.

Complera (emtricitabine / rilpivirine / tenofovir): It has been wonderful to come from 5 pills twice daily to one pill a day. The only problem I have with it is constipation. I have always been regular and 2 days after I started taking it I noticed a change in my bowel habits. It's a minor problem so I am dealing with it. I have only been on it for 2 months so I haven't had my blood work done. I have always had undetectable viral load and 800 CD4. I hope nothing changes because I like this medicine.
