Duovir N

Duovir N Tablet is a combination antiretroviral medication prescribed for treating HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection. It works by strengthening the immune system to combat HIV and manage AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).

This medication inhibits HIV replication in the body, reducing the risk of HIV-related complications and improving life expectancy. It can be taken with or without food. Consistent dosing at scheduled times enhances its efficacy. Missing doses may compromise treatment effectiveness, so complete the full prescribed course unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Abrupt discontinuation may reduce the medication’s potency.

Common side effects include headache, nasal congestion, diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, cough, and skin rash. These are typically temporary, but consult your doctor if they persist or worsen. The medication may cause drowsiness or weakness, so avoid driving. Staying hydrated helps manage side effects.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any medical conditions. Regular blood tests may be required to monitor blood counts, kidney and liver function. HIV-positive individuals should avoid breastfeeding and sharing personal items like razors or toothbrushes. Consult your doctor about safe sex practices to prevent HIV transmission.
