i preferred Truvada which gave me no noticeable side effects and was very easy to take. Descovy makes me dizzy and out of sorts (Restless and slightly depressed mood) Its either feeling like this V. Osteoporosis from Truvada. Hey Ho. Ill keep looking for something better.

Descovy is a game changer! Truvada gave me horrible nausea. I have no side effects from Descovy.This is a much safer, new and improved PrEP. Highly recommend.

I have been on this mediation now for 9 days. Its causing a bit of a headache at times and rapid heart beat. I'm gonna stick with it for another week or so to let my body get used to it but the heartbeat thing bothers me a bit. Hoping it goes away.
