"Did not improve my numbers (undetectable with 250-350 T cell). No major issues with the drug. Heartburn if I did not take it after eating, though that could be even something as little as a candy bar. If I took it right before going to bed, I had some heartburn even if I had eaten, so I ended up taking prescription antacids frequently. Did not see any problem with cholesterol, kidney, or liver functions, but because of some possible evidence of it, my doctor suggested I switch to Juluca."

"After 15 years, I got to know I am HIV positive. Then, I immediately started taking this medicine. Now it's been a year. I never had any side effects and it's giving good results in my body. Great experience."

"Been on this since 2017, I don't really have side effects, and CD4 is excellent and always VL. I switched from Tenofovir combo due to joint issue, which seems to improve a lot on Triumeq. Currently joining a study comparing Triumeq with Dovato, which has been approved in 2019, removing Abacavir. If it works the same + less medication, I will switch to Dovato to reduce pill burden."

"If you're able to take Triumeq, I highly recommend it. I would consider Triumeq as a top 5 overall treatment for HIV. For me, I am more energized and alert. I think any medication in general has side effects, however, in the past 5 years, for me personally, very little side effects occur. I would rate this a 9/10."

"Started with VL 10,000,000+ CD4 400. At first, made me feel tired. Then it started giving me an irregular heartbeat. When I eat, my blood pressure drops significantly now, and my heart rate shoots up over 100. After 3 weeks, viral load at 900, which is good, but terrible side effects. Went for a hard run and had a cup of coffee only to finish with an arrhythmia of 150+ and a trip to the emergency room. Switched medication, and my doc put me on Biktarvy, but still feeling similar side effects. Pray to God for all of us that these meds don’t get rid of us faster than the HIV."

"It's been 11 days since I started Triumeq. Word of advice: you MUST eat and eat well with this med (3 square meals) and drink PLENTY of water!"

"This medication is potent, with minimal side effects. Went from 100,000 viral load to 80 in 3 weeks, and now I'm undetectable at month 4, and my CD4 has increased from 333 to 599."

"Triumeq is a great combination pill. No side effects, no problem taking it. I hope the long-term impact on the liver and the body in general is acceptable."

"Great results. T cells up, viral load down. Diarrhea is the only real side effect for me, perhaps some depression, but I've also been going through a lot."

"I take Triumeq 600 mg/50 mg/300 mg. Just had tests show that my back is being detectable again. I don't understand why I take it on time every night. Any ideas why? Thanks."
