Can Biktarvy cause a cough? Understanding the potential link

According to clinical information, a cough is an infrequent side effect that can occur while taking Biktarvy, but it is often not a direct reaction to the medication itself. Instead, it may be linked to your immune system's recovery from HIV, a phenomenon known as Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS), or may indicate a separate, new infection. It is important to talk to your doctor about any new or persistent cough.
