Combination tablets can also create compliance problems.

A frequent example is a patient with a reduced GFR secondary to Viread usage. In this event Atripla needs to be immediately, yet temporarily, replaced with Sustiva and Epivir for several weeks.

Since the patient often cannot obtain these medications in a timely manner, this results in non-compliance for a period of time. Some Doctors will simply stop the Atripla, due to the extra complications involved, with a worse outcome for their patient.
