NEVIR TABLET

NEVIR TABLET is an antiretroviral medicine used in the treatment of HIV. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retroviral infection that attacks and damages the cells of the immune system. This weakens the ability to fight against infections and diseases. If this condition is left untreated, it can lead to Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). NEVIR TABLET is combined with other antiretroviral medicines to treat HIV infection.

NEVIR TABLET contains Neviparine, which belongs to the class of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). It works by inhibiting the HIV reverse transcriptase enzymes that are necessary for the virus's DNA reproduction. This causes inhibition of DNA replication and thereby prevents further spread of infection.

NEVIR TABLET may cause side effects such as nausea, headache, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, vomiting, fatigue, diarrhoea, myalgia (muscle pain), skin rash and other allergic reactions. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor. NEVIR TABLET should be taken as advised by your doctor. Your doctor will decide the dose of the medicine based on your health condition. Do not take more than the recommended dose.

NEVIR TABLET should be avoided if you are allergic to it. This medicine is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment or used as an occupational or non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis.
