 You may well be experiencing central nervous system side effects from the efavirenz in Atripla. Side effects as you describe occur in 30% + of patients starting Atripla. Such side effects typically peak in the first several weeks and then diminish by 4 weeks or so to perhaps 10% or so still having annoying side effects. KH | ||||||||
