Darunavir is typically used in combination with other antiretroviral medications to create a regimen that is effective in controlling HIV. It is usually prescribed to people who have not previously taken HIV medications or who have developed resistance to other treatments.
Darunavir is available in several forms, including tablets and an oral suspension. It is generally taken once or twice daily, with or without food. Common side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, headache, and rash. As with all HIV medications, it is important to take darunavir exactly as prescribed and to follow up regularly with a healthcare provider to monitor its effectiveness and any potential side effects.
