Products that contain aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium or other minerals such as antacids and supplements may interfere with the absorption of bictegravir and reduce its effectiveness in treating HIV infection. Additionally, it may lead to development of viral resistance to this and various other HIV medications that are currently used for treatment. When used with antacids, you should generally take bictegravir on an empty stomach at least two hours before the antacid. Avoid taking bictegravir simultaneously with, or 2 hours after, antacid dosing whenever possible. When used with multivitamin or mineral supplements, you may take bictegravir and supplements together at the same time, but with food. Avoid taking bictegravir on an empty stomach simultaneously with, or 2 hours after, dosing of supplements. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions on how to take this or other medications you are prescribed, or if you have trouble separating the dosing times. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
