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The drugs you have mentioned that are used as pep or post exposure prophylaxis are currently outdated.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.

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.

It seems there is somebody trying to misguide u. And this is happening a lot. Some doctors are charging between 20000 to 50000 for pep. There is no role of q10 and kumrin.
If risk is minimal even raltegravir is not required.
You are taken for a ride.
Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what is to be done.

Usually gastric problems, headache and fatigue can also be the side effect of tab spegra. But if you are not taking the tablet currently then you should get tested for hiv.

I understand your query. I advice you to go for private consultation as it will help me to give you better advice and suggestion, if you have any issue in booking the online consultation do let me know. Spegra medicine is not a cure for hiv; it only prevents the virus from multiplying in your body
