| Response from Dr. Young
 Hi and thanks for posting. The medications in Complera are not associated with increased risk of developing body fat changes. Be mindful that there are other risk factors for lipodystrophy- importantly one's lowest ever CD4 count is a major determinate, so waiting to start therapy actually increases the risk. Hope that helps, BY | ||||||||
