can dual drug therapy cause resistance? Jul 19, 2001 Dr. I have been taking epivir, ziagen and zerit withgreat success. I have no side effects and my T- cell count has risen and viral load is undectable. Because of an insurance glich I wont have coverage for a month or more. I currently have plenty of the zerit and epivir left but no Ziagen. Should i take those 2 without the ziagen or just stop them all until I have theziagen again? |

Response from Dr. Little
 NO - if you cannot take all of the drugs in your regimen, you are better off stopping them all until you can start all of them together again. Drug resitance will be a major concern if you drop one drug (any one) from your current regimen. |
