PEP side effects?
Hi,
I am currently on day 11 of my PEP medication- 1 pill of Truvada and Tivicay per day. I am experiencing symptoms such as-
1. Mild rashes
2. Mild stomach pain
3. Mild muscle weakness in hand/feet
Are these common side effects of above PEP medication or do I need to reach out to my doctor about it?
Thank you!

You should stay in contact with your doc, pharmacist or the manufacturer of the medication has a site and a call in number when using ANY medication that you suspect may be causing problems.
