Calcium Carbonate: Calcium carbonate 500 mg tablet taken orally twice daily with food for 48 weeks.

Atripla: FDC efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EFV/FTC/TDF) 600 mg/200 mg/ 300 mg tablet taken orally once daily at bedtime on an empty stomach.
Arm B: Vitamin D3 Placebo and Calcium Placebo Plus EFV/FTC/TDF

The participants were administered a placebo for vitamin D3, a placebo for calcium carbonate, and FDC efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Atripla)

Placebo for vitamin D3: A placebo for vitamin D3 once daily taken orally as one capsule with food for 48 weeks.

Placebo for calcium carbonate: A placebo for calcium carbonate twice daily taken orally as one x 0 mg tablets with food for 48 weeks
