Hi,
I'm looking to obtain samples of people on Truvada who are HIV positive and people who are HIV negative. Does anybody know a good source for this material? Or does anybody know a way of obtaining Truvada in the EU for research purposes?
Thanks,
Alan
Are you aware of the iwantprepnow.co.uk website? It is a buyers club of sorts set up by some people who wanted to import generic Truvada for the purposes of PrEP, and have linked up with clinics for therapeutic drug monitoring to verify the drugs. Many people in the UK appear to have obtained their PrEP stocks through this site.

Are you needing a standard of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate AND emtricitabine (the drugs in Truvada)? If so, you may be better going to Gilead based in Ireland who may be able to supply the compounds. If you require a sample of Truvada (not for administering to a patient) then perhaps ask your local HIV pharmacist in NHS Lothian who may be able to supply this against a written order if you are registered physician in the UK.
Thanks for the advice everyone. Very helpful.
@David: Gilead stock Truvada so I have sent them a request. I am unsure they will be able to provide this to me however as I am not an MD. I've also found out that people who order Truvada online for PreP can go to GHMS clinic for help. I've contacted there offices to enquire if we could possibly obtain samples from their clinic.
