Question

Am I going to lose weight, I’m on citenvir?

I started citenvir, but I am worried about weight loss.

Answer

Thanks for getting in touch.

Modern ARVs are very effective and issues like weight loss are now less common. However, this is not to say that you won’t have loss when taking citenvir. That said, weight loss isn’t one of the most common with citenvir. This being a generic version of Atripla. For more info about possible side effects please see here:
