REVIRO 300 MG TAB. 1X30 TAB.

About

Reviro 300 mg is an antiretroviral medication, typically a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection and chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. It works by interfering with the reverse transcriptase enzyme, which is essential for the replication of HIV and HBV. By inhibiting this enzyme, Reviro prevents the viruses from multiplying and spreading within the body, thereby reducing the viral load and allowing the immune system to recover or maintain its function. This leads to improved clinical outcomes, reduced disease progression, and a lower risk of transmission.

The drug is often part of a combination therapy regimen for HIV, where it is used alongside other antiretroviral agents to achieve maximal viral suppression and prevent drug resistance. For HBV, it provides long-term viral control, preventing liver damage and reducing the risk of liver cancer. Consistent adherence to the prescribed dosage and regular medical monitoring are crucial for the effectiveness and safety of Reviro 300 mg therapy.

Safety Measures

• Alcohol - Limit alcohol intake as it can exacerbate liver damage, especially in patients with HBV, and may worsen side effects like nausea or dizziness.
• Pregnancy - Consult a doctor. Reviro is often used in pregnancy for HIV management, but risks and benefits must be carefully weighed.
• Breastfeeding - Consult a doctor. Breastfeeding is generally not recommended for mothers with HIV due to the risk of viral transmission. For HBV, discuss with a physician.
