Hi there<\/p>\n

Thanks for your Q and for the nice feedback.<\/p>\n

The best reource for drug interactions with PrEP and other HIV meds is here:
\nhiv-druginteractions.org\/checker<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a comprehensive report<\/a>\u00a0of PrEP interactions with supplements. The few\u00a0potential interactions, including green tea, are weak and\/or unclear. None of the others in your list are a problem.<\/p>\n

TD\/FTC interactions other medications are covered here:
\ni-base.info\/guides\/prep\/does-prep-interact-with-any-other-medications<\/a><\/p>\n

These include some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), especially diclofenac, ibuprofen and naproxen. Short-term use for a few days will be okay, but routinely taking both drugs together in the longer term can cause kidney problems.<\/p>\n

best wishes<\/span><\/p>\n
