Response from Dr. McGovern
The Truvada is a good drug for your hepatitis B. It was probably the Kaletra that caused you the bloating feeling. You can try to substitute with another protease inhibitor or use a drug like efavirenz. Your physician will know best. I would also talk with your physician about how much liver disease you may have and about getting a liver biopsy if you have active liver disease. | |||||||||
