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.
