I took Tykerb for one year on the ALTTO trial and there is a correlation between taking it with food and the strength of the effect. It is stronger when taken with food. Something having to do with the fat content of the food, if I remember right. You don't take it with food now, do you? I got very strict instructions that I couldn't eat one hour before or after I took the pills. Good luck finding a solution that is right for you and your boyfriend NED!
