Anyone else experiencing odd side effects from Tivicay (Dolutegravir) 25mg Tablets for HIV treatment?
I've been on Tivicay for about three months now, and while I'm grateful for the viral suppression, I've been experiencing some side effects that I'm not sure about. My doctor mentioned the usual stuff like headaches and fatigue but I'm having some strange skin irritation and mouth sores. Has anyone else dealt with anything similar? I'm trying to figure out if this is normal or if I should be concerned.
If your doctor isn't taking your side effects seriously, it might be worth getting a second opinion. HIV treatment is a big deal, and you should feel comfortable and safe.
I've heard of people getting rash and stomach pain but mouth sores are new to me. Maybe a side effect or maybe not. I'd consult with your physician before deciding to skip any meds.
I started getting mouth sores too, but they went away after a few weeks. Might want to stick it out a bit longer and see if they clear up.
I've been on Tivicay for over a year and never had anything like that. Maybe you should talk to your doctor again?
It's hard to talk about this stuff, but it's important to voice concerns.
