In clinical trials, the single-tablet regimen of Tivicay (dolutegravir) and Epivir (lamivudine) was as effective as a three-drug treatment.

The combo of dolutegravir and lamivudine controlled HIV as well as a triple-drug combo of dolutegravir plus Truvada.
Symfi Lo contains efavirenz, lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF); Cimduo contains TDF and lamivudine.
