Can taking green tea interfere with ARVs?
Answer
Thank you for your question.
Green Tea has not been scientifically proven to have anti-HIV properties as this website states. You have to be careful what you are reading. There are millions of people who believe they have the cure to HIV but in reality, if it were true, there would be no need for ARVs.
However, green tea is a good antioxidant and a healthy thing to drink. It does not interfere with any ARVs.

Hello Antie and thank you for the question.
I can’t find enough information about soursop and general interactions with ARVs.
Which ARVs are you taking? I might be able to find more information if I know your combination.
The only thing I have found about soursop is that it has not been studied enough and there are no specific evidence about its benefits.
Why are you using it?
