This is because Aluvia is a &#8216;boosted&#8217; drug meaning it is a combination of 2 drugs where one makes the other more effective. The problem being this can cause more side effects.<\/p>\n<p>Please see this <a href=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/20042\">previous question<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/guides\/14970\">Luvigen<\/a> is a dolutegravir based regimen. People are recommended to take this drug in the morning because it can cause problems sleeping.<\/p>\n<p>Is your current viral load suppressed? If you are and you have no known drug resistances this is a safe switch fo you to make.<\/p>\n<p>As luvigen is often a better tolerated drug with fewer side effects, switching away from Aluvia if you have the option would be supported.<\/p>\n<p>Josh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m HIV positive and i&#8217;m using Aluvia and  Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
