Stadin 30mg 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). Symptoms of HIV include fever, chills, night sweats, muscle aches, etc. Stadin 30mg Tablet is used with other antiretroviral medicines to treat HIV infection.

Stadin 30mg Tablet contains Stavudine, which belongs to the class of protease nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI). It works by inhibiting the nucleoside reverse transcriptase enzymes necessary for the virus's DNA reproduction. This causes inhibition of viral replication and thereby prevents further spread of infection. Stadin 30mg Tablet is only used to treat the infection but not cure or prevent it.
