Ritocom and tenolam as hiv pep
I had an exposure with an HIV positive patient. As today is sunday I didn't get any pep in govt. Hospitals.
So I started taking below medicine after 53 hours (2dsys and 5 hours) of exposure:-
Ritocom:- lopinavir & ritonavir tablet 200mg/50mg
Tenolam:- tenovofir disoproxil fumarate & lamivudine tablet ip 300mg/300 mg
Are these 2 medicine are effective enough as pep (post exposure prophylaxis) ?
