Can I take Lerumo Lamadi with ARVs?
Answer
Hi, how are you?
As with most supplements, you can take these alongside your ARVs.
However as with most supplements, there is no proven benefit to your health to continue to take them.

Hello Oupa and thanks for getting in touch.
We are based in the UK so I am not sure what the situation is in your country and whether you will need a prescription.
Here in I-base we don’t recommend people to be on supplements, unless their doctor prescribed them.
Some of the supplements are not safe as they are not regulated and can have interactions with ARVs.

Hi Othaeng, unfortunately after 72 hours PEP is not effective at preventing HIV transmission.
At 84 hours you are more than 12 hours after the recommended cut-off. For this reason it would be considered too late to suggest PEP.
Can I take PEP after 84 hours..not within 72 hours.
