Truvada (emtricitabine / tenofovir) for HIV Infection: I've been using Truvada for about three months with no noted side effects. Once daily dosing of one pill is great and it can be taken with or without food.

Truvada (emtricitabine / tenofovir) for HIV Infection: After one year on Truvada in combination with Prezista and Norvir - the only listed side effect I may be suffering from is insomnia - and I think that has more to do with other factors than with Truvada (I take it at Noon). After hearing about possible side effects with HIV medicines- it is a pleasant surprise!

Truvada (emtricitabine / tenofovir) for HIV Infection: I have been on the combination of Truvada/Prezista/Norvir for over 2 years now. The side effects that cause me the most problems are the ones dealing with my kidneys! The Truvada has made my GFR go down to 30, very close to changing medicines at that point. But it has been working so well that we took a very close monitoring of my kidney function, and my GFR has stabilized around 55. Other than that the side effects have been minimal to none. Great medicine overall!
