Duovir E Kit Tablet

Duovir E Kit Tablet contains the active ingredient Efavirenz + Lamivudine + Zidovudine. It is a combination of three antiretroviral medicines. Lamivudine, Zidovudine belong to the class of medications called nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Efavirenz belongs to the class of medication called non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. It is used to treat HIV-1 infection. It mainly occurs when a person’s immune system is attacked and weakened by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This infection progressively weakens the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to opportunistic infections.

This drug is contraindicated in individuals with severe renal impairment and may have altered drug clearance, which mainly affects the efficacy and safety of the medicine. Also, it is highly advised not to use this drug in patients with severe renal impairment. Dose adjustment is necessary for such conditions. Tell your doctor if you have any liver disease, including hepatitis B or C, kidney disease, heart problems, diabetes, history of seizures, mental health problems, consumed street drugs, or large amounts of alcohol before taking Duovir E Kit Tablet. The administration of this medicine is associated with hematologic toxicity (decrease in blood cells), muscle weakness, liver diseases, infection, and lactic acidosis (acid buildup due to problems in the body’s metabolism). Do not breastfeed. Consult your doctor about safe sex practices.

During the initial stage of treatment, some patients may experience an inflammatory response to opportunistic infections. This condition, immune reconstitution syndrome, can occur after starting the drug or other antiretroviral therapies. Knowing this possibility and monitoring for any signs of worsening infections or inflammatory symptoms is necessary. Inform your healthcare provider if the symptoms concern you or persist longer than usual. Patients are also advised to report any skin or hypersensitivity reactions to their healthcare provider and to seek medical emergency immediately if they experience any symptoms of a severe reaction. Tell your doctor immediately about all the medications you have been taking recently, including herbal and supplements, before taking Duovir E Kit Tablet.
