Updated consumer fact sheets about the side effects of HIV medicines are now available on HIVinfo. HIV medicines help people with HIV live longer, healthier lives and reduce the risk of HIV transmission. However, HIV medicines can sometimes cause side effects. People starting HIV medicines can talk to their health care provider about possible side effects and ways to manage them. The updated fact sheets provide important information about the possible side effects of HIV medicines. Each fact sheet includes a summary of key points and links to additional information and resources.
