Hello user.
I keep repeating in Lybrate not to self treat or test for any hiv related issues, please. Arv meds are not otc meds. All consultation in Lybrate are confidential so please don't hesitate to contact any spl you wish to consult. It needs detailed consultation to start pep. The use of pep. 3 drugs carv is the recommended regime and not 2 drugs. However you may still consult for further information. Thanks. Stay safe from covid 19.

Good evening lybrate-user.
The drugs you have mentioned that are used as pep or post exposure prophylaxis are currently outdated. As the drug efavirenz 600 you have mentioned has been the essential first line drug in hiv infected for past 20 years.

Hello Lybrate User,
Please see about your 3 issues.
Pep- drugs used or not the recommended regimens, as per your info (tdf and raltegravir, generic name). 3 drugs or recommended for effective pep.
The hiv test - done at 3 days after exposure is invalid as even nuclic acid tests can not give valid results before 10 days of hiv infection.
Side effects- could b a possibility.
It would be good if you please consult in pvt an hiv specialist to guide you well before its too late.more

1. There is no treatment that eradicates hepatitis b infection completely. 2. However treatment is available to arrest the liver damage and subsequent development of cirrhosis of liver/carcinoma of liver. In most of the cases the hepatitis b virus automatically gets cleared from the blood within 6 months. If the virus persists after 6 months it is known as chronic hepatitis b. 30-90% of patient suffering from chronic hepatitis b subsequently develop cirrhosis of liver/carcinoma of liver if not t...more
