That's a good question.
Emtricitabine - tenofovir do not interact with isotretinoin metabolism. You can continue taking both!

Hello-
oral sex is not safe sex. It may be 'safer sex' than genital sex without a condom, in that you won't get pregnant from oral sex alone, but oral sex without a condom still carries the significant risk of catching or passing on sexually transmitted infections (stis).

Now two months ago they changed her drug to anzavir-r and tenofovir which she only takes once a day. She has turned dark in skin colour on her face and sweats alot at night. Should she continue with these drugs or stop.

Should she continue or not depends on current status of illness which your attending physician is best to guide. Yes black skin can be corrected by classic ayurved formulae for turning unnatural skin tone to natural fairness and glow by raktashodhaks and varnyadi gana herbs (10 classic herbs combo) in reasonable cost and time period. You can also procure herbs and make yourself or entrust us. Pl consult.
