What Is Mytesi?
Mytesi (crofelemer) is a prescription medication used to manage non-infectious diarrhea in adults with HIV/AIDS who are on antiretroviral therapy. It works by blocking chloride ion channels in the intestinal lining, reducing the secretion of fluids into the gut and normalizing stool consistency. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most patients experience meaningful relief from diarrhea and improved day-to-day quality of life.
- Targeted relief: Mytesi acts locally in the gut to reduce fluid secretion without being significantly absorbed into the bloodstream, minimizing systemic side effects.

Is Online Mytesi Treatment Right for You?
Mytesi is approved for adults living with HIV/AIDS who experience non-infectious diarrhea as a side effect of antiretroviral therapy. Candidates should have an established HIV diagnosis and be currently taking antiretroviral medications, with diarrhea that is not attributable to an infectious cause.
Because Mytesi addresses a gastrointestinal complication related to long-term HIV management, a physician will review your antiretroviral regimen, overall GI history, and any other medications you take to confirm this treatment is appropriate and safe for you.

Frequently asked questions
Mytesi (crofelemer) is FDA-approved to relieve non-infectious diarrhea in adults living with HIV/AIDS who are on antiretroviral therapy. It is not intended to treat diarrhea caused by infections.
Mytesi works by blocking two chloride ion channels in the intestinal lining. By reducing the flow of chloride and water into the gut, it decreases the volume and frequency of loose stools without being significantly absorbed into the bloodstream.
Mytesi is taken as a 125 mg delayed-release tablet twice daily, with or without food. You should swallow the tablet whole and not crush or chew it.
The most commonly reported side effects include upper respiratory tract infections, bronchitis, cough, flatulence, and nausea. Because Mytesi acts locally in the gut and has minimal systemic absorption, systemic side effects are generally uncommon.
Mytesi has minimal systemic absorption and has not shown clinically significant interactions with most antiretroviral drugs in clinical studies. However, your physician will review your full medication list to ensure safety before prescribing.
Some patients notice improvement within the first week of treatment, but individual responses vary. Your physician may assess your response over several weeks to determine whether Mytesi is providing adequate relief.
Doctronic uses an AI-powered evaluation to gather your symptoms and medical history, which is then reviewed by a licensed physician. If appropriate, the physician creates a personalized treatment plan, which may include a prescription sent directly to your pharmacy.
Yes. All evaluations are conducted and reviewed by licensed, board-eligible physicians. Doctronic is HIPAA-compliant and every treatment decision is doctor-reviewed and audited to meet the highest standards of patient safety.
