Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

Stribild can be associated with dizziness in some of the persons who use it. Normally it affects a minority but if the symptoms are intolerable at present then you should speak to your doctor about possibly changing the medication.

In terms of the time frame for the dizziness, unfortunately there is no information to say how long the effects may occur.
It may or may not decrease.

I hope this helps
