Taftrio Tablet (Bictegravir 50mg + Emtricitabine 200mg + Tenofovir Alafenamide 25mg) is a prescription HIV medicine used as a complete once-daily antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. It combines Bictegravir, an integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI), with two NRTIs, Emtricitabine and Tenofovir Alafenamide, that work together to control HIV by reducing the virus’s ability to multiply and supporting long-term viral load suppression. As a complete single-tablet regimen, Taftrio is taken on its own, with or without food, under medical supervision.

Uses & Benefits

Uses & Benefits

Uses & Benefits

  • Used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and adolescents as a complete doctor-prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen.
  • Helps control HIV infection and prevents it from progressing to AIDS by reducing HIV-1 viral load in the body.
  • Increases CD4 cell count, improving the body’s ability to fight infections and opportunistic illnesses.
  • A complete single-tablet regimen that combines an integrase inhibitor (Bictegravir) with two NRTIs (Emtricitabine + Tenofovir Alafenamide), so no extra HIV medicines are needed.
  • Suitable for once-daily HIV treatment, with or without food, supporting adherence and long-term viral suppression.

Key Benefits

  • Suppresses HIV Viral Load: Bictegravir blocks HIV integrase, reducing HIV-1 viral load and keeping the virus under control as part of ART.
  • Boosts Immunity: Raises CD4 cell count, strengthening your immune system against opportunistic infections and AIDS complications.
  • Complete One-Pill Regimen: Three antiretrovirals in a single daily tablet, with no booster and no separate backbone required.
  • Once-Daily Convenience: One tablet daily, with or without food, simplifies treatment and improves long-term ART adherence.
  • Reduces Transmission Risk: By keeping viral load suppressed, Taftrio supports the U=U (Undetectable = Untransmittable) goal and lowers the risk of passing HIV-1 to partners.

How it works?

01

Blocks HIV Integrase Enzyme

Bictegravir inhibits integrase, the enzyme HIV needs to insert its genetic material into your cells, stopping HIV-1 replication at the integration stage.

02

Dual NRTI Backbone

Emtricitabine and Tenofovir Alafenamide block reverse transcriptase, preventing HIV-1 from copying its RNA into DNA and multiplying.

03

Reduces HIV Viral Load

By attacking HIV at two different stages, Taftrio rapidly lowers HIV-1 viral load in the bloodstream.

04

Increases CD4 Count

Lower viral load lets the immune system recover, raising CD4 cell count and reducing opportunistic infection risk.

05

High Barrier to Resistance

The unboosted integrase inhibitor combination makes it harder for HIV-1 to develop drug resistance.

06

Supports Long-Term Viral Suppression

Continuous once-daily use keeps HIV-1 viral load undetectable over the long term, supporting the U=U (Undetectable = Untransmittable) treatment goal.

How to take?

1
Take one Taftrio Tablet once daily, with or without food, to maintain consistent HIV-1 viral suppression.
2
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water, and do not crush, chew, or break it.
3
Take Taftrio at the same time every day to keep steady drug levels and support long-term ART adherence.
4
Separate antacids and supplements containing aluminium, magnesium, calcium, or iron. Take Taftrio at least 2 hours before or 6 hours after, as they reduce Bictegravir absorption.
5
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember; if it is close to the next dose, skip the missed one, and never double up.
6
Continue taking Taftrio exactly as prescribed; do not stop or change the dose without medical advice, even if you feel well, and never stop suddenly if you have hepatitis B.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Taftrio Tablet used for?

Taftrio Tablet is used to treat HIV-1 infection in adults and adolescents as a complete once-daily antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen. It contains Bictegravir (50mg), Emtricitabine (200mg), and Tenofovir Alafenamide (25mg), which work together to suppress HIV-1 viral load and support recovery of the immune system (CD4 count).

What is the recommended dosage of Taftrio Tablet?

The usual dose is one Taftrio Tablet once daily, with or without food. Always follow your doctor’s prescribed dosage and take it at the same time each day. Never skip doses, as this increases the risk of HIV-1 drug resistance.

Can Taftrio Tablet cure HIV?

No. Taftrio Tablet does not cure HIV or AIDS. It controls HIV-1 viral load, improves CD4 cell count, and helps prevent the disease from progressing, but it must be taken continuously, exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

Can Taftrio Tablet be taken with or without food?

Yes. Unlike some HIV medicines, Taftrio can be taken with or without food. Taking it at the same time each day helps maintain steady drug levels and supports long-term viral suppression.

Does Taftrio Tablet interact with other medicines?

Yes. Important interactions include: antacids and products containing aluminium, magnesium, calcium, or iron (take these well apart from Taftrio, as they reduce Bictegravir absorption); rifampicin and rifabutin (reduce drug levels and may cause treatment failure); certain anti-seizure medicines; metformin (levels may rise); and St. John’s Wort (reduces ART effectiveness). Always tell your doctor about all medicines and supplements you take.

Is Taftrio Tablet safe for people with hepatitis B?

Taftrio contains Emtricitabine and Tenofovir Alafenamide, which are also active against hepatitis B. If you have HIV–HBV co-infection, do not stop Taftrio suddenly without medical advice, as this can cause a serious flare-up of hepatitis. Your doctor will monitor your liver before and during treatment.

How long does Taftrio Tablet take to work?

Taftrio begins reducing HIV-1 viral load within the first few weeks. Many people reach an undetectable viral load within 3–6 months of consistent daily use. Regular viral load and CD4 monitoring confirms how well the treatment is working.

What are the common side effects of Taftrio Tablet?

Common side effects include headache, nausea, diarrhoea, and fatigue. Some people may experience weight gain. Serious but less common effects can include kidney problems, liver issues, or, rarely, lactic acidosis. Seek immediate medical help for severe symptoms. Most mild effects settle as your body adjusts.

What should I do if I miss a dose of Taftrio Tablet?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue your normal schedule. Do not take a double dose. Consistent daily dosing is essential for HIV control.

Who should avoid taking Taftrio Tablet?

Taftrio may not be suitable for people who are allergic to any of its ingredients, those taking medicines that strongly interact with it (such as rifampicin or St. John’s Wort), or those with certain kidney or liver conditions. Always share your full medical history with your doctor before starting treatment.
