Question
Does Atripla cause upper stomach pain and should I be worried?
Also while taking Atripla for 10 months now I, on the odd occasions, get moderate to severe intensifying head pain should I see my GP or GUM DR for a check-up?

Thank you for your question.
Upper stomach pain and headaches could be a side effect of taking Atripla. It is important that you speak to your HIV or GUM doctor about this. It might help if you kept a diary about the time and intensity of the pain to show your doctor so they can get an idea of the severity, duration and frequency of these pains.
