About this listen

Most medications and treatments have side effects - antiretroviral therapy is no different. In the early days of the epidemic, HIV medications often caused weight gain in the upper back and lower stomach. Today's medications have lessened some of these effects but often still cause weight gain. Kalvin speaks with advocate Lillabeth Gonzalez and Dr. John Koethe to discuss the effects of weight gain on people living with HIV.
