Description

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics:

Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that works by inhibiting the activity of reverse transcriptase, an enzyme necessary for the replication of HIV. By blocking reverse transcriptase, Lamivudine prevents the virus from multiplying and reduces the viral load in the body. This helps to slow the progression of HIV infection and improve immune function.

Drug Classification:

Lamivudine belongs to the class of antiretroviral medications known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). It is specifically indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in combination with other antiretroviral agents.

Formulations:

Our Lamivudine Range is available in tablet form, with each tablet containing 100 mg of Lamivudine. Each pack contains 14 tablets, providing a convenient and effective treatment option for individuals living with HIV/AIDS.

Indications:

Lamivudine is indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 35 kg. It is used in combination with other antiretroviral agents as part of a comprehensive treatment regimen for HIV/AIDS.

Usage:

For optimal results, Lamivudine tablets should be taken orally with water, preferably with food to enhance absorption and reduce gastrointestinal side effects. It is important to take Lamivudine exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider and to follow the recommended dosage regimen.

Dosage:

The recommended dosage of Lamivudine may vary depending on the patient’s age, weight, renal function, and other factors. In adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 35 kg, the typical dosage is one 100 mg tablet taken once daily. Dosage adjustments may be necessary for individuals with renal impairment or other underlying medical conditions.

Side Effects:

While Lamivudine is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, fatigue, or rash. In rare cases, Lamivudine may cause more serious side effects such as lactic acidosis, hepatotoxicity, or hypersensitivity reactions. It is important to report any unusual or severe side effects to your healthcare provider promptly.
