Q and A

Question

Will clotrimazole affect my treatment?

I’ve just started taking efavirenz and Truvada. A week into taking my treatment, I noticed that I had thrush, because it is something I have suffered with before on many occations. I visited my local GUM clinic and was given clotrimazole cream and a vaginal pessary. I went home and used them without thinking if they would effect my treatment.
Please help.

Answer

There are no known drug interactions between the ARVs and the antifungal cream clotrimazole. So, no worries. Take care!

    Hi Eric, no there are no interactions between TLD and clotrimazole. It is safe to take them together.

    There any negative effect if I take PEP ( TLD) with clotrimazole tabs together?
