What is Stribild?
Stribild treats human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the infection that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). It doesn’t cure HIV or AIDS, but instead may slow the disease progress and prolong life. Stribild is made by Gilead Sciences, and was approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in Oct. 2012.
What’s the Problem?
Lawsuits allege that tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), one of the active ingredients in Stribild, contributes to kidney problems and bone demineralization due to compromised bone density, which has caused bone fractures and other serious side effects in some patients.
