Conclusion: According to this study, tenofovir/lamivudine/dolutegravir (TLD)-based antiretroviral medication (ART) users are more likely to gain weight, and clinicians should advise them of the risks of weight gain as well as cost-effective ways to prevent weight gain linked to poor health outcomes in these patients. Future investigations should confirm the findings of this study, and more research into the effects of weight gain in these people is required.
