What Is Ilvitrim Suspension

Updated

Hi... I'm HIV positive and my son is three months old and I haven't been taking my medication for a week now but I give my son the ilvitrim suspension every day. Is he at the risk of being infected? I'm so worried.

Hello, Kaylor! How are you and your son?

Did they test him at birth to see if he was infected?

Ilvitrim is an antibiotic, so I'm not sure why he's on it. What is he being treated for?

Why aren't you taking your medication?
