Information

Combivir is a prescription medication used in the treatment of HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), the virus that can lead to AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). It is a combination antiretroviral drug that contains two active ingredients, lamivudine and zidovudine. These ingredients belong to a class of medications known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), which work by preventing the virus from multiplying, thereby reducing the amount of virus in the body. Combivir is used in conjunction with other antiretroviral medications as part of an antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen. It is important to note that while Combivir can significantly reduce the viral load in patients, it is not a cure for HIV or AIDS.
When using Combivir, a medication commonly prescribed for the treatment of HIV, it is crucial to adhere strictly to your doctor's instructions and thoroughly read the label that accompanies the medicine. This ensures you are aware of the correct dosage and any potential interactions with other medications you may be taking. Inform your doctor about all other medicines you are using to avoid adverse interactions. Side effects of Combivir can range from common ones like headaches, fatigue, and nausea, to rarer, more severe reactions such as lactic acidosis, liver problems, or blood disorders. Due to its potential side effects, caution is advised when performing tasks that require alertness, such as driving or operating heavy machinery, until you know how Combivir affects you. Monitoring your health and reporting any unusual symptoms to your doctor promptly is essential for managing side effects and ensuring the effectiveness of the treatment.
