Question

I feel dizzy when I take my ARVs, what can I do?

I‘ve been on biktarvy for 9 months I always feel dizzy and lightheaded. I find it hard to focus. Is there anything that I can do?

Answer

Thanks for getting in touch.

Though feeling dizzy can happen when someone first starts med, it shouldn’t last more than a few weeks. If you’re feeling dizzy once you’ve taken your meds, and you’ve been on them for 9 months, this is something that you’re going to need to talk to your doctor about. It may be worth trying another type of ARV.
