Side Effects: Common side effects of raltegravir may include headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, insomnia, fatigue, and rash. Serious side effects may include allergic reactions, liver problems, and a rare but severe skin reaction called Stevens-Johnson syndrome.

Regular monitoring of liver function and other blood tests may be necessary during treatment.
