It proves that your viral load is being suppressed and that your medication is working. If a viral load is below 200, <a href=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/u-equals-u\/\">U=U<\/a> can apply and there is no risk of sexual transmission of HIV.<\/p>\n<p>Between the two, Delstrigo is often preferred as it is not a boosted drug. This means you are less likely to experience side effects.<\/p>\n<p>As your viral load is suppressed there is no risk to switching. This is because your medication is already working and switching will keep viral load suppressed &#8211; but with different drugs.<\/p>\n<p>Josh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am really worried about changing my medication from Symtuza to Delstrigo.
