Response from Mr. Vergel
It is hard to tell, but I am bised that it will. AZT can also cause lipoatrophy, although not at the same rate as Zerit. I got off Zerit 4 years ago and things improved a little. I got off AZT a year ago and replaced it with Viread and I can not see the veins in my legs anymore. This is only anecdotal information, though. Nelson | |||||||||
