Revision as of 14:10, 23 July 2012

Truvada is a fixed dose combination of two antiretroviral drugs used for the treatment of HIV. It consists of 300 milligrams of tenofovir and 200 milligrams of emtricitabine. By combining the two agents into one tablet, it reduces the pill burden and increases compliance with antiretroviral therapy.

A combination pill containing Truvada and efavirenz (Sustiva) is also available and is marketed as Atripla.
