Background: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is widely used in Botswana as part of the first-line antiretroviral regimen in the 'Treat All' strategy implemented in 2016 by the Ministry of Health. Its use has been associated with several uncommon adverse renal effects, though rarely all in conjunction or without the combined use of protease inhibitors.
Case Presentation: A 49-year-old woman living with HIV whose viral load is suppressed on tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, lamivudine, and dolutegravir presented with 1 day of generalized weakness and myalgia causing an inability to ambulate.
