A member asked:
How common is facial swelling from sustiva (efavirenz)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is not listed...: ...In the package insert as a common side effect, but facial swelling can be a sign of allergic reaction to the drug - particularly if accompanied by fever, a general ill feeling, fatigue, muscle or joint aches, blisters, oral lesions, or eye inflammation. If you have any combination of those, call your doctor right away.
