Question

How much water should I take my Atenef pills with?

15 October 2016. Related: Adherence, All topics.

How many mL of water is needed at the time of drinking Atenef pills?

I don’t think this matters – a glass of water is likely to help digestion though – but a mouthful is also okay :)

Hi Bonga,

Please tell us a bit more. Do you have a fever?

At the moment if you have a fever, it might be because of coronavirus. Please can you call the doctor and tell them about your symptoms?

If you live in South Africa you can contact the Treatment Action Campaign at this contact link. They can help locally with access to HIV treatment.

Hi Noluthando,

ARVs, so the Atenef won’t be the reason why your periods have stopped, nor why you aren’t getting pregnant. This isn’t one of the side effects. If this is an issue, please see a doctor.
