KSh 5,200.00
Combivir Tablets are prescribed as part of a combination treatment for HIV infection. They do not cure the virus but help manage it by decreasing its levels in the body. This can improve the immune system and delay serious health problems. The active ingredients are Lamivudine (150mg) and Zidovudine (300mg).
Anti-Virals
Suggested Use
Combivir is approved for managing HIV-1 infection alongside other antiretroviral medications. Recommended dosage for adults and adolescents is one tablet taken twice daily. For pediatric patients, the appropriate dosage is calculated based on body weight and should be prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Warning
- Combivir should only be used under the supervision of a doctor experienced in treating HIV infection.
- Do not take Combivir if you are allergic to lamivudine, zidovudine, or any of the other ingredients in the medication.
Serious side effects such as anaemia, low white blood cell count, and mitochondrial toxicity may occur. - Combivir does not prevent the transmission of HIV to others, so practising safe sex and avoiding sharing needles or drug injection equipment is crucial.
- Inform your doctor about all your medical conditions and medications before starting Combivir.
