Question

What is best for my wife during pregnancy?

My wife and I are going back to the clinic on Tuesday! We have both been on treatment for 5 years and both have CD4s in the high 200s! We are due to start IVF treatment next year and my wife has to change her regimen away from; efavirenz and Kivexa. I have done some reading and have my opinions, but what combination would you say was the most tried and tested for her safety?

Answer

It is good that you doctor suggests to switch from efavirenz, as it has shown some possible negative effect on the foetus. There is some very detailed information about treatment during pregnancy here.

Hope this helps.
