| Response from Dr. Henry
 Gastroparesis (slow emptying of stomach) can be a problem for some patients. Reglan, use of a gastrostomy feeding tube, and evaluation by a gastrointerologist/neurologist can be helpful for certain patients while still allowing for sufficient absorption of HIV medications. KH | ||||||||
