Will facial reverse if I change from Zerit? Sep 12, 2005 Hello, I am currently taking Zerit, Kaletra, Viread and T20 which is working great. Viral load less than <50 and CD4 around the mid 700's. I have experienced some facial wasting and this is quite depressing. I received two treatments of Newfill about a year ago and its wearing off and I am saving for another session. My question is this, if I cut out the Zerit from my regime would my facial wasting be reversed over time? ie. would the facial wasting just stop and not get any worse or would the fat start to grow back to my face? My doctor thinks that the regime is potent enough to sustain without the Zerit? I would really appreciate your opinion and some advise. Thanks for taking the time. Regards John |

 It would be an excellent idea to stop the Zerit, as it is the single drug most associated with facial (and other) wasting. As far as we know, the changes in your face will stabilize. It is not at all clear whether they will improve or by how much, but we can always hope... | |||||||||
