| Response from Dr. Young Hello, Assuming that baseline resistance testing didn't reveal any significant drug resistance and that you're adherent to your medications, first-line treatments like Atripla (and others) should remain effective for many, many years. I have patients who have been successfully suppressed on first-line treatments (switched along the years with better medications) for over 12 years now. I hope this helps, BY | ||||||||
