For HIV Infection "Been on Genvoya for around 6 years after having been on Stribild for 2. No major side effects at the start, but gradually my mental health has struggled with anxiety/panic, and now I feel depression is setting in. Fatigue has also become a real issue. Not sure if this is related to Genvoya or not, but have asked the clinic if I can try switching to rule it out. Having done some reading on others, though, genuinely not sure what will be best to try. I should add that my numbers have been good on this."

For HIV Infection "I’ve been taking Genvoya for a very long time. I love that it is a once-a-day dosage. I am not aware of any side effects and do have my liver enzymes monitored several times a year, and often they are slightly elevated, but this could partially be due to other medications and/or genetics. I didn’t know that it is supposed to be taken with food for optimal absorption until this past year. I’m sure I must have not researched it enough. Now I am learning about how much food needs to be ingested and the time to wait for the stomach acids to begin the digestion process. My doctor switched me to another HIV pill with fewer ingredients when it came out, but I had terrible side effects, so he switched me back to Genvoya."

For HIV Infection "I was diagnosed in 2017, my viral load over 400,000. I started with Atripla, which I had no problem with, but a new doctor suggested Genvoya because of Atripla's side effects. With Genvoya, I was undetectable in 2 months. I’ve never had a side effect that I can think of besides flatulence, and I’ve had that forever (lol). I highly recommend trying it if you're having problems with other medications."

For HIV Infection "I was diagnosed in 2001, started on Lexiva, Norvir and Truvada in 2005, changed to Stribild in 2015, and switched to Genvoya in 2016 since it contains the newer, less toxic Truvada. I have been undetectable since. I have been fortunate to have had no noticeable side effects or discomfort at all. I'm also on Crestor. I give Genvoya a 10 and consider myself very fortunate!"

For HIV Infection "Just took my first pill 1.5 hours ago. A little tingling in the tongue, thirst, and my ears are a little red as if someone rubbed them... Maybe it's from emotions... Otherwise nothing-no stomach ache-no nausea-no nothing... I'll keep you posted when I make it to 4 hours-this post is for starters."

For HIV Infection "My first day after Genvoya pill. A little diarrhea and smelly flatulence. My tummy is grumbling. Other feelings a little headache-but maybe that's from the weather outside. Apart from that, nothing noticeable. So far, I think this is a good medicine."

For HIV Infection "With TAF, it's a vast improvement over Stribild with TDF. But after 1 1/2 years, I'm tired of it making me tired. I'm getting brain, liver, joint, and liver inflammation. This disease sucks."
