This is Prezcobix. It helps keep HIV infection under control. Prezcobix contains TWO medicines in each tablet.

People with HIV are having a better quality of life and are living longer than ever before. To do so, it is important to take HIV medications exactly as your doctor tells you to.

Prezcobix is often taken once a day, at the same time each day. You should take it with food.

Most people tolerate Prezcobix well. Common side effects include a headache, nausea, diarrhea and pain in the stomach area. These effects are normal if they are mild and should go away. Over time, this medicine can cause changes in body fat, which could change the appearance of your body. If these or other side effects become reasons you want to stop taking this medicine, please talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

You should know that a rash is a common side effect. Certain rashes can be very serious. You should tell your doctor right away if you have any kind of rash. 

As with any medicine, more serious side effects can occur. With Prezcobix, these include high blood sugar and problems with your liver, kidneys or immune system. It is important to read the Patient Information sheet to know which symptoms to watch for, and when to report them. To help keep this medicine safe for you, your doctor will follow your condition closely.
