  2. Although therapy has become more tolerable and once daily FDC tables have made it easier to adhere to prescribed treatment, it still requires that patients take their medication regularly to achieve sustained viral suppression. When treatment adherence is inadequate and replication is therefore not suppressed, But dr itua promised and fulfilled his promised to me as he said I will share his work to people that are suffering from Infertility, Herpes, Hepatitis A/B, Fibroid, HIV/ Aids, Alzheimer's disease, Arthritis, Copd, Diabetes, Liver/Kidney Inflamotry, Fibromyalgia, Parkinson's disease, I have read a lot of testimony online from Jesus McKinney,Achima Abelard and Tara Omar on how dr itua heal them with his herbal medicine I contacted him on Email drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then we talk on whatsapp +2348149277967 he gave me instruction on how to drink it for two weeks then after drinking it for two weeks I went for test then I find out I was cured of HIV, I thank him allot i also send him some money for appreciation, Contact this great herbal doctor if you are a sick person.

I was cure of Herpes by a great powerful herbalist Dr. Dominic Elabe.it was after I got my worst breakdown on 12/2/2018, when I was diagnosed of Herpes Simplex Virus. I became worried and ashamed to show myself in the public. I tried so many antiviral treatment, to see if I could get ride of my health issues,but non could cure me,glory to God. My researchers on the Herpes remedy got me excited when I came across lots of testimonies on how there where cured of Herpes with Herbs by Dr. Dominic Elabe.......
    I did contacted the Dr, luckily for me it was his happy day. He had to take me to his hospitals to view the other patience of much critical conditions and of group pictures with testifying patients who had been cured. It was indeed a great day for me. I quickly requested for my cure cos I was convinced he could cure me as well. Not long he prepared the medicine for me and sent through the DHL delivery service. It was together with an herbal cream that burnt all the blisters on the affected parts. I followed the instructions given to me, and it works for me too. My Dr, just confirmed me Herpes negative. I'm so happy with my life now.Dr. Dominic Elabe is a good man and had been with his gift from birth.you need to contact him yourself for any health challenge @
