i Took TNF for 7 years without any issues. I can tell u its almost safe.
While taking TNF, i also took 5k to 10k daily of Vit D3. Also took MK-7 Vitamin K2 at same time.
Vitamin K2 MK7 helps calcium go where it is needed in the body. Calcium can go to places in your body that is not good for your health such as building up in your blood vessels and causing some types of kidney stones and can even leach calcium out of your bones. This vitamin makes sure that does not happen and that calcium goes into the bones and teeth where it belongs.
How long have you been on laminvudine? I took it for less than a years, more than a decade ago, and the hep b virus quickly mutated, luckily viread was available for hiv patients at the time, with my hbv DNA raising, I took viread anyway, and hbv along with the mutated one were quickly under control. Every drug has side effects, bone density lost were reported as one, but was insignificant for me, my doctor was more concerned about the kidney functions.
Bone loss is not that significant in healthy young individuals. It may become obvious only on very long term intake ie. Several Years.
Take it fearlessly, it is a safe drug and ofcourse its new congener TAF with more efficacy and ten times lower dose is about to come in all the markets so u can switch to it later on. Taking vit D is good for bone formation and immune system as some members here suggest. Taking unrequired calcium is not advisable from me.
What's the difference between between TAF and TDF?
I've been on TDF for around 4-5 years and have low bone density. but not sure if it is due to the drug. recently switched to TAF so hoping that will help. I've been taking rainbow light Men's One for a long time too but that didn't seem to help.
