Whats That
Prolavir LR Tablet belongs to a class of drugs called antiretrovirals used in the treatment of HIV infection. Prolavir LR Tablet helps in decreasing the chance of developing AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). Prolavir LR Tablet may be used in combination with other antiviral drugs. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system and destroys the white blood cells that help in fighting infection, making the individual susceptible to other infections or illnesses.
Prolavir LR Tablet is a combination of two antiretroviral drugs, namely: Lopinavir and Ritonavir. Lopinavir works by inhibiting the working of a protease enzyme that is essential for the reproduction of HIV. Thereby, it prevents the production of the new virus. Ritonavir slows the breakdown of Lopinavir by the liver and increases the levels of Lopinavir in the blood and making it effective against the virus. Together, they help to control HIV infection.
Take Prolavir LR Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Prolavir LR Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, upper respiratory tract infection, indigestion, decreased appetite, headache, or dizziness. Most of these side effects of Prolavir LR Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
