About emtricitabine-tenofovir

What is emtricitabine-tenofovir?
Emtricitabine-tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a combination antiviral medication used to treat and prevent HIV-1 infection. It’s a combination of two antiretroviral drugs, emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved emtricitabine-tenofovir for two main purposes:
• Treatment of HIV-1 in combination with other antiretroviral agents
• Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in HIV-negative individuals at high risk of HIV infection

Emtricitabine-tenofovir is available as a tablet, each with a ratio of emtricitabine to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. It’s also prescribed under the brand name Truvada. Generic versions are available and typically offer a more affordable option.

How to get an emtricitabine-tenofovir prescription online?

You can get emtricitabine-tenofovir online quickly and safely through Klarity:

  • Schedule a consultation: Book an appointment with a licensed medical provider via Klarity’s secure platform.
  • Medical evaluation: Your provider will review your health history and assess your HIV risk or treatment needs.
  • Prescription: If appropriate, they’ll electronically send your prescription to a pharmacy near you or arrange for home delivery.
  • Ongoing follow-up: Routine lab testing and check-ins may be required, especially for those using it as PrEP.

How does emtricitabine-tenofovir compare to other medications?

There are several medications available for HIV prevention and treatment, each with different strengths and side effect profiles.

MedicationTypeKey differences
Emtricitabine-Tenofovir (Truvada)NRTI comboFDA-approved for both treatment and PrEP; requires daily use
DescovyNRTI comboAlternative PrEP option for men and transgender women; not for vaginal sex risk
Biktarvy3-drug comboUsed for HIV treatment; once-daily with fewer drug interactions
Atripla3-drug comboOlder regimen, more likely to cause central nervous system (CNS) side effects

Emtricitabine-tenofovir remains a preferred choice for PrEP due to its strong effectiveness and relatively mild side effect profilectuations.
