Question
I am feeling sick on Tribuss
27 June 2016. Related: All topics, Side effects, Support.
I’m HIV positive since 2006 and I started meds with Tribuss in 2013. When I drink it my stomach is hurting and hot in the morning I feel like can vomit?
Answer
Sorry, it sounds like you’re not feeling at all well.
Have you talked to your doctor about this? If yes, what did they say?
If no, then talking to them now is a good idea.
Common side effects with Tribuss – mainly to do with efavirenz – usually things like sleep disturbance or changes to your mood. Tribuss can also cause a rash or liver and kidney problems.
Many people have mild side effects when they start treatment, and that includes feeling like you want to vomit, but this usually gets easier.
Your doctor needs to decide what is causing the pain. If this is very bad it’s important you see your doctor quickly in case it’s to do with something other than your HIV meds.
