Effectiveness

How Genvoya works in the bodyElvitegravir is an anti-HIV drug that stops the virus from replicating. It does this by blocking the enzyme called integrase, which is needed for HIV-1 to spread. Elvitegravir does not affect the host's own topoisomerases, which are enzymes involved in DNA regulation.

This treatment is very simple, just one pill a day. I did experience some dizziness, but it was nothing compared to other drugs I've been prescribed.

I'm really pleased with genvoya. I started taking it on 8/1/2016 and haven't had a single side effect. In fact, not only did it get rid of a rash I had on my leg, but it did so within a month.

Genvoya for HIV
I switched to this treatment a month ago and feel much healthier now. I also take an antifungal daily because of spinal meningitis, but my doctor is the best and he saved my life. Recovery was long, but it was worth it in the end.

Genvoya for HIV
I just took my first pill an hour and a half ago. I'm feeling a little tingling in my tongue and cheeks got red, sort of like when someone rubs them. I don't know yet how effective this pill is going to be.

Genvoya for Prevention of HIV Infection after Exposure
I feel like I can't get any good advice on which treatments will work best for me. I was on an old HIV treatment that had been working well for me for 20 years, but the drugs became temporarily unavailable. I was then advised to switch to Genvoya, and started having all kinds of bothersome side effects: fat distribution in my midsection, dryness in my mouth, wake up choking due to lack of moisture, difficulty sleeping.
