Q: Do you know if there’s a relationship between using Atripla and increased hypertension? Obviously, I am HIV+ and am on several meds for hypertension.
A: I am unaware of a clinical study showing that use of Atripla causes high blood pressure. However use of HAART for HIV has been associated with hypertension. The same classes of drugs found in Atripla are used with HAART so a relationship is possible. To see a discussion of HAART and hypertension, click here.
