"My wife and I have been on Epzicom since 2000 along with Viramune. It works, no side effects. We take the generic. I don't understand why doctors keep prescribing expensive new stuff when old stuff works fine."

"I've used this since first diagnosed and starting HAART in 2004, and it's worked extremely well: my numbers have never been below 1200 since 3 months after starting it. I first used it with Sustiva, and now use it with Isentress."

"Epzicom, Reyataz, and Norvir triple combination. It is expensive, but all HIV medications are expensive, and there are programs to help pay for the medicine if you have a low wage since most of these HIV medicines cost between $3,000 and $10,000 or more. This one, in combination with Reyataz and Norvir, has brought my CD4 level up to 1,100 and an undetectable viral load. I do have side effects from the three medications, such as nausea and lethargy, but I take Marinol/Dronabinol to take away the nausea. I am happy with my CD4 count and viral load on this combination of medicines to fight my HIV/AIDS infection."

"I started taking Epzicom with Reyataz in 2006. Several months later, my viral load was undetectable and has remained that way to this day. The generic for Epzicom appears to be working equally well. I've never experienced any side effects. I don't understand why some doctors recommend newer, more expensive drugs when the ones I take work well with no side effects."

"I started taking Epzicom almost 2 years ago when I found out I had HIV. And my blood count has been going up, and I have been feeling GREAT!"
