Question
Can I take Stocrin and Truvada at the same time?
30 August 2011. Related: Adherence, All topics.
Can Truvada (tenofovir/FTC) and Stocrin (efavirenz) be combined into one tablet and be taken once a day instead of taking one in the evening and one at night?
Answer
Hi
These two meds are already available in one pill that is taken once daily.
The combined pill is called Atripla.
Even if you cannot get this formulation, ask your doctor about taking both your meds together at night. Unless you are taking other medications that might interact, most people take these meds at the same time.
The evening is better than the morning because of the side effects of Stocrin (efavirenz).
