Genvoya® Tablets for HIV-1

Genvoya® is a prescription HIV-1 treatment taken as one daily tablet. It combines four medicines to help control the virus and support long-term care. This page explains how it works, who it’s for, and how you can order confidently. Ships from Canada to US and can help if you pay cash or need Genvoya without insurance.

What Genvoya Is and How It Works

Genvoya® contains an integrase inhibitor (elvitegravir), a booster (cobicistat), and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide). Together, they reduce HIV replication and help lower viral load when taken consistently. Border Free Health connects U.S. patients with licensed Canadian partner pharmacies; prescriptions are verified with prescribers before dispensing.

This combination is a complete regimen for many adults and adolescents as directed on the label. It is taken with food to support absorption and steady levels. Learn more about the condition in our HIV category, or review testing basics in Types Of Hiv Tests. You can also read about symptoms in HIV Symptoms.

Many patients prefer single-tablet regimens for convenience. The class mix in elvitegravir cobicistat emtricitabine tenofovir alafenamide tablets is designed to target HIV at multiple steps in the life cycle.

Who It’s For

This treatment is indicated for adults and certain adolescents as per the official label. It may be suitable for people starting therapy or switching from a stable regimen when criteria are met. People with severe kidney problems or significant liver impairment may not be candidates. Those with hepatitis B coinfection need careful monitoring when starting or stopping therapy.

Avoid use with medicines that strongly induce CYP3A or otherwise reduce integrase inhibitor levels. Examples include rifampin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and St. John’s wort. Some cholesterol drugs, certain alpha-1 blockers, and ergot derivatives are contraindicated with boosting agents. Your prescriber will confirm whether this combination fits your situation.

Dosage and Usage

The usual schedule is one tablet once daily with food. Swallow whole; do not crush, split, or chew. Take it at the same time each day to support steady drug levels. If antacids are used, separate timing per label guidance to reduce interaction risk.

Consistency matters. Set reminders, tie dosing to a routine, and keep a small supply in your day bag. If you are unsure about specific administration details, rely on the approved prescribing information and your healthcare professional’s guidance.

Strengths and Forms

This medicine is supplied as film-coated tablets containing 150/150/200/10 mg of elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide. Bottles typically contain a 30-day supply. Availability and packaging may vary by pharmacy and manufacturer lots. Many patients refer to these as Genvoya tablets, reflecting the all-in-one format.

Missed Dose and Timing

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember with food. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time. If vomiting occurs shortly after a dose and you are unsure whether a full dose was absorbed, check the label or ask your clinician for advice tailored to your situation.

Storage and Travel Basics

Store tablets at room temperature in the original, tightly closed container with the desiccant. Keep away from excess moisture and heat. Do not store in a bathroom. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

When traveling, pack doses in your carry-on with a copy of your prescription. Keep the bottle labeled. Avoid leaving the medicine in a hot car. If crossing borders or changing time zones, plan in advance so you do not miss doses. Our checkout uses encrypted checkout, and partner pharmacies use temperature-controlled handling when required.

Pen Handling and Sharps Disposal

No special pen or injector steps apply. This treatment is taken as an oral tablet only.

Benefits

Single-tablet therapy can simplify daily routines. Taking one pill with food may improve adherence compared with multi-pill regimens. The components act at different stages of the viral life cycle, which may help sustain viral suppression when used as directed. Many patients appreciate the all-in-one approach, coordinated refills, and fewer separate bottles to manage.

Side Effects and Safety

• Common: nausea, diarrhea, headache, fatigue, abnormal dreams
• Sometimes reported: dizziness, rash, stomach discomfort
• Laboratory changes: increases in cholesterol or creatinine, changes in liver enzymes

Serious but less common risks can include lactic acidosis, severe liver problems, kidney issues, and significant allergic reactions. People with hepatitis B coinfection may experience severe flare-ups if treatment is stopped; close follow-up is important. Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome can occur after starting effective therapy. Seek urgent care for symptoms like severe abdominal pain, trouble breathing, yellowing skin, or swelling of the face or throat.

Drug Interactions and Cautions

Tell your prescriber about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products. Strong CYP3A inducers can lower levels significantly and reduce effectiveness. Certain statins, ergot medicines, and specific alpha-1 blockers are contraindicated with boosting agents. Antacids and products containing aluminum, magnesium, or calcium may require spacing. Acid-reducing agents can also affect absorption; follow the label’s timing guidance.

Review Genvoya interactions with your care team and pharmacist. Do not start or stop other prescriptions without medical advice. Alcohol and recreational substances can complicate adherence and liver health; discuss safe use with your clinician.

What to Expect Over Time

With consistent daily use and clinical monitoring, many people see their viral load decline and immune markers improve. You may not feel different right away. Regular blood tests help confirm progress and support long-term safety. If side effects occur, many are mild and often settle, but report anything persistent or severe. Keeping every dose on schedule is central to treatment goals. Pair the medicine with regular follow-up and supportive services as recommended by your healthcare professional.

Compare With Alternatives

Several approved options exist. Doravirine-based therapy such as Pifeltro can be used with an appropriate backbone when clinically suitable. Some patients may consider single-tablet integrase-based regimens discussed in our Biktarvy Guide. Two-drug options like dolutegravir/lamivudine may be considered for select candidates per guidelines. Individual history, resistance tests, and comorbidities guide selection.

Patient Suitability and Cost-Saving Tips

This therapy may fit adults and certain adolescents who meet label criteria and do not have contraindicated conditions or medicines. It is not recommended with severe kidney impairment and may be unsuitable during pregnancy because exposures can change.
