What if HIV infection co-exists with HBV infection? Will this affect treatment with Shanvudin?
In HBV patients who are diagnosed with HIV, Shanvudin is not recommended until and unless these patients start taking medicines for HIV management. Starting Shanvudin in such patients may cause resistance to the prescribed HIV medicines. Therefore, doctors recommend tests for HIV in patients diagnosed with HBV infection before starting treatment with Shanvudin.
