Question
Can you take Telatri when pregnant?
5 February 2021. Related: All topics, Pregnancy.
I’m taking an ARV called Telatri. Will this have any impact on my ability to get pregnant? Is it OK to take if I do fall pregnant?
Answer
Thanks for getting in touch.
Telatri is a modern combination of three generic HIV drugs in a single pill. It contains dolutegravir, tenofovir (TD) and lamivudine (3TC).
ARVs will not affect your fertility. If you become pregnant it’s OK to take Telatri, as they will help protect your baby against HIV.

Hello Thomas and thank you for getting in touch.
You are right Telatri and Luvigen are generic forms of the same medication.
If I am guessing correctly they gave you different brands based on stock.
You should only take one tablet per day of either Telatri or Luvigen.
It might be best to take it in the morning.
You can take it with or without food.
You should return to the clinic when you are running out of medication or when you have 1 month left.
