What are the possible side effects of SELZENTRY?
* Liver Problems (see above).
* Heart problems including heart attack.
* Low blood pressure when standing up (postural hypertension). Low blood pressure when standing up can cause dizziness or fainting. Do not drive a car or operate heavy machinery if you have dizziness while taking SELZENTRY.
* Changes in your immune system. A condition called Immune Reconstitution Syndrome can happen when you start taking HIV medicines. Your immune system may get stronger and could begin to fight infections that have been hidden in your body such as pneumonia, herpes virus or tuberculosis. Tell your doctor if you develop new symptoms after starting your HIV medicines.
* Possible chance of infection or cancer. SELZENTRY affects other immune system cells and therefore may increase your chance for getting other infections or cancer, although there is no evidence from the clinical trials of an increase in serious infections or cancer.
The most common side effects of SELZENTRY include colds, cough, fever, rash, and dizziness. Tell your doctor about any side effect that bothers you or does not go away.
Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins and herbal supplements. Certain other medicines may affect the levels of SELZENTRY in your blood. Your doctor may need to change your dose of SELZENTRY when you take it with certain medicines.
Do not take products that contain St. John?s Wort (hypericum perforatum). St. John?s Wort may lower the levels of SELZENTRY in your blood so that it will not work to treat your CCR5-tropic HIV infection.
Selzentry comes in 150 mg and 300 mg tablets. Your doctor will prescribe the right dose for you. Store Selzentry tablets at room temperature from 59 F to 86 F (15C to 30 C).
