Stoctrin and side effects
Dec 8, 2006

I have be positive without meds for almost 15 years. Seeing specialist 12/12/06 because of wht count of 3000. Want to know about Stoctrin and side effects. I have read that it causes nightmares, dizziness, and adominal weight gain. I am a size 4, I work out regulary and am in great shape. I am concerened about anything that would cause me to unaturally gain weight. Besides Stoctrin, what are the other hiv/aids meds that cause weight gain?

Thank you for your response.

Response from Dr. Holodniy

Those are indeed side effects of stocrin. They do not occur in everybody and it is difficult to predict who will have side effects. Many HIV drugs can be associated with weight gain. Again this is an individual response that does not happen in everyone.
