Instgra (Dolutegravir)

Brand name: Instgra

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Dolutegravir

Company Name: Emcure

Package: 30 Tablets/Bottles

Strength :50mg

Indication:

Instgra (Dolutegravir)is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in adults and children aged 12 years and older and weighing at least 40 kg. Instgra (Dolutegravir)is an HIV-1 integrase strand transfer inhibitor. It works by blocking HIV-1 integrase, an enzyme needed for the HIV virus to replicate.

Mechanism of action:

Instgra (Dolutegravir)is an HIV-1 antiviral agent. It inhibits HIV integrase by binding to the active site and blocking the strand transfer step to retroviral DNA integration. This is an essential step of the HIV replication cycle and will result in an inhibition of viral activity. Instgra (Dolutegravir)has a mean EC50 value of 0.5 nM (0.21 ng/mL) to 2.1 nM (0.85 ng/mL) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and MT-4 cells.

Dosage and Administration:

Use Instgra (Dolutegravir)as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· An extra patient leaflet is available with Instgra (Dolutegravir). Talk to your pharmacist if you have questions about this information.

· Take Instgra (Dolutegravir)by mouth with or without food.

· Do not take an antacid or product that has magnesium, aluminum, iron, or calcium in it; sucralfate; or buffered medicines within 6 hours before or 2 hours after you take dolutegravir.

· Take Instgra (Dolutegravir)on a regular schedule to get the most benefit from it. Taking Instgra (Dolutegravir)at the same time each day will help you remember to take it.

· Continue to take Instgra (Dolutegravir)even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.

Tenvir (Tenofovir ) 

Brand name: Tenvir 

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Tenofovir disoproxil Fumerate

Company Name: Cipla

Package:30 Tablets

Strength : 300mg

Indication:

Tenvir (Tenofovir ) is used with other HIV medications to help control HIV infection. It helps to decrease the amount of HIV in your body so your immune system can work better. This lowers your chance of getting HIV complications (such as new infections, cancer) and improves your quality of life.

Mechanism of action:

Tenvir (Tenofovir ) is a defective adenosine nucleotide that selectively inhibits the action of reverse transcriptase, while only weakly interfering with mammalian DNA polymerases α, β, and mitochondrial DNA polymerase γ. Tenvir (Tenofovir ) prevents the formation of the 5′ to 3′ phosphodiester linkage essential for DNA chain elongation. A phosphodiester bond cannot be formed because the Tenvir (Tenofovir ) molecule lacks an —OH group on the 3′ carbon of its deoxyribose sugar. Once incorporated into a growing DNA strand, Tenvir (Tenofovir ) causes premature termination of DNA transcription. The drug is classified as a nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NtRTI). Reverse transcriptase is a crucial viral enzyme in retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and in hepatitis B virus infections.

Dosage and Administration:

Use Tenvir (Tenofovir ) as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· An extra patient leaflet is available with Tenvir (Tenofovir ). Talk to your pharmacist if you have questions about this information.

· Take Tenvir (Tenofovir ) by mouth with or without food.

· Continue to take Tenvir (Tenofovir ) even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.

· Taking Tenvir (Tenofovir ) at the same time each day will help you remember to take it.

· Do not suddenly stop taking Tenvir (Tenofovir ) without checking with your doctor. This may cause the virus to become less sensitive to this or other medicines. If you have hepatitis B, your condition could become worse if you suddenly stop taking Tenvir (Tenofovir ).

· If you miss a dose of Tenvir (Tenofovir ), take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Side effects:

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Back pain; diarrhea; dizziness; gas; headache; indigestion; loss of appetite; nausea; runny or stuffy nose; sweating; tiredness; trouble sleeping; vomiting; weakness; weight loss.

Precaution:

Before taking Tenvir (Tenofovir ), tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.

Mechanism of action:

Daruvir (Darunavir) is a HIV protease inhibitor which prevents HIV replication by binding to the enzyme''s active site, thereby preventing the dimerization and the catalytic activity of the HIV-1 protease. Daruvir (Darunavir) selectively inhibits the cleavage of HIV-encoded Gag-Pol polyproteins in virus-infected cells, which prevents the formation of mature infectious virus particles. Structual analyses suggest that the close contact that Daruvir (Darunavir) has with the main chains of the protease active site amino acids (Asp-29 and Asp-30) is an important contributing factor to its potency and the wide spectrum of activity against multi-protease inhibitor-resistant HIV-1 variants. Daruvir (Darunavir) can also adapt to the changing shape of a protease enzyme because of its molecular flexibility. Daruvir (Darunavir) is known to bind to two distinct sites on the enzyme: the active site cavity and the surface of one of the flexible flaps in the protease dimer.

• Use Daruvir (Darunavir) as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
• Take Daruvir (Darunavir) by mouth with food. Ritonavir should be taken at the same time as Daruvir (Darunavir).
• Swallow Daruvir (Darunavir) whole with a drink, such as water or milk. Do not break, crush, or chew before swallowing. If you are unable to swallow Daruvir (Darunavir) whole, contact your doctor. Daruvir (Darunavir) may not be right for you.
• If you also take didanosine, do not take it within 1 hour before or 2 hours after taking Daruvir (Darunavir). Check with your doctor if you have questions.
• Taking Daruvir (Darunavir) at the same time(s) each day will help you remember to take it.

Efavir (Efavirenz) is available in two separate forms, which include 200mg capsules and 600mg tablets. The strength of the dosage required will be decided by the physician, based on the patient`s body weight. Adults are generally directed by their physician to take a single 600mg tablet per day, at bedtime. It is administered on an empty stomach, as taking it alongside meals or after eating could worsen side effects. Other patients who need a lower dosage may be instructed to use the 200mg capsules, however the exact dosage will vary significantly depending on the specific body weight of each individual. Therefore, all patients must comply with the dosage regimen that their physician plans for them. Only administer the amount of medication that your physician directs you to take.

Be aware of the possible side effects that Efavir (Efavirenz) can cause. Certain reactions are listed here:

• Nausea
• Fatigue
• Vertigo
• Lipodystrophy
• Concentration difficulties

Your physician will regularly conduct various medical assessments so that your condition can be monitored. All side effects (no matter how mild) must be thoroughly reported. Rarely, serious reactions will occur. Should you experience bloody urine, abnormal behavioral disturbances, significant appetite reduction, speech problems, unexplained weigh increases or any other severe side effects, see your physician immediately.

Efavir (Efavirenz) is unable to cure a HIV infection. Therefore, patients must bear in mind that precautions should be taken to stop them from infecting others. This includes practicing safe , avoiding the sharing of toothbrushes, razors or needles, as well as other measures.

LamivirHBV 

Brand name: LamivirHBV 

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Lamivudine

Company Name: Cipla

Package:10 Tablets

Strength : 100mg

Indication:This drug is used with other HIV medications to help control HIV infection. It helps to decrease the amount of HIV in your body so your immune system can work better. This lowers your chance of getting HIV complications (such as new infections, cancer) and improves your quality of life. LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) belongs to a class of drugs known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors-NRTI.

Mechanism of action:

LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) is an analogue of cytidine. It can inhibit both types of HIV reverse transcriptase and also the reverse transcriptase of hepatitis B virus. It is phosphorylated to active metabolites that compete for incorporation into viral DNA. They inhibit the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme competitively and act as a chain terminator of DNA synthesis. The lack of a 3''-OH group in the incorporated nucleoside analogue prevents the formation of the 5'' to 3'' phosphodiester linkage essential for DNA chain elongation, and therefore, the viral DNA growth is terminated.

LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) is administered orally, and it is rapidly absorbed with a bio-availability of over 80%. Some research suggests that LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) can cross the blood–brain barrier. LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) is often given in combination with zidovudine, with which it is highly synergistic. LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) treatment has been shown to restore zidovudine sensitivity of previously resistant HIV. LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) showed no evidence of carcinogenicity or mutagenicity in in vivo studies in mice and rats at doses from 10 to 58 times those used in humans.

Dosage and Administration:

Use LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· Take LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) by mouth with or without food.

· Continue to take LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.

· Taking LamivirHBV (Lamivudine) at the same time each day will help you remember to take it.

· If you miss a dose of LamivirHBV (Lamivudine), take it as soon as possible. If it is within 2 hours of your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Side effects:

See also Warning section.

Headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, or trouble sleeping may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Nevimune (Nevirapine)

Brand name: Nevimune

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Nevirapine

Company Name: Cipla

Package:60 Tablets/Bottle

Strength : 200mg

Indication:

This drug is used with other HIV medications to help control HIV infection. It helps to decrease the amount of HIV in your body so your immune system can work better. This lowers your chance of getting HIV complications (such as new infections, cancer) and improves your quality of life. Nevimune (Nevirapine) belongs to a class of drugs known as non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs).

Mechanism of action:

Nevimune (Nevirapine) falls in the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) class of antiretrovirals. Both nucleoside and non-nucleoside RTIs inhibit the same target, the reverse transcriptase enzyme, an essential viral enzyme which transcribes viral RNA into DNA. Unlike nucleoside RTIs, which bind at the enzyme's active site, NNRTIs bind allosterically at a distinct site away from the active site termed the NNRTI pocket.

Nevimune (Nevirapine) is not effective against HIV-2, as the pocket of the HIV-2 reverse transcriptase has a different structure, which confers intrinsic resistance to the NNRTI class.

Resistance to Nevimune (Nevirapine) develops rapidly if viral replication is not completely suppressed. The most common mutations observed after Nevimune (Nevirapine) treatment are Y181C and K103N, which are also observed with other NNRTIs. As all NNRTIs bind within the same pocket, viral strains which are resistant to Nevimune (Nevirapine) are usually also resistant to the other NNRTIs, efavirenz and delavirdine. However, second generation NNRTIs like rilpivirine and etravirine are effective in treatment for HIV strains resistant to Nevimune (Nevirapine) and other first generation drugs in that same class.

Dosage and Administration:

Use Nevimune (Nevirapine) as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· Nevimune (Nevirapine) comes with an extra patient information sheet called a Medication Guide. Read it carefully. Read it again each time you get Nevimune (Nevirapine) refilled.

· Take Nevimune (Nevirapine) by mouth with or without food.

· Taking Nevimune (Nevirapine) at the same time each day will help you remember to take it.

· Continue to take Nevimune (Nevirapine) even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.

Side effects:

Tiredness, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea may occur. Drowsiness may rarely occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Precaution:

Before taking Nevimune (Nevirapine), tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.

Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: liver problems (such as hepatitis B or C, cirrhosis), kidney dialysis, lactose or galactose intolerance.

Store:

Store Nevimune (Nevirapine) at room temperature, between 59 and 86 degrees F (15 and 30 degrees C). Store in a tightly closed container. Store away from heat, moisture, and light.

Ritomune (Ritonavir) 

Brand name: Ritomune 

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Ritonavir

Company Name: Cipla

Package:60 Tablets/Bottle

Strength : 100mg

Indication:

Ritomune (Ritonavir) is an antiretroviral medication used along with other medications to treat HIV/AIDS This combination treatment is known as highly active antiretroviral therapy . Often a low dose is used with other protease inhibitors. It may also be used in combination with other medications for hepatitis C.

Mechanism of action:

Ritomune (Ritonavir) was originally developed as an inhibitor of HIV protease. It is one of the most complex inhibitors. It is now rarely used for its own antiviral activity, but remains widely used as a booster of other protease inhibitors. More specifically, Ritomune (Ritonavir) is used to inhibit a particular liver enzyme that normally metabolizes protease inhibitors, cytochrome P450-3A4 (CYP3A4). The drug's molecular structure inhibits CYP3A4, so a low dose can be used to enhance other protease inhibitors. This discovery, which has drastically reduced the adverse effects and improved the efficacy of protease inhibitors and HAART, was first communicated in an article published in the journal AIDS in 1997 by researchers at the University of Liverpool. This effect does come with a price: it also affects the efficacy of numerous other medications, making it difficult to know how to administer them concurrently.

Dosage and Administration:

Use Ritomune (Ritonavir) as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· Take Ritomune (Ritonavir) by mouth with meals.

· Swallow Ritomune (Ritonavir) whole. Do not break, crush, or chew before swallowing.

· Continue to take Ritomune (Ritonavir) even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.

Side effects:

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Abnormal skin sensations, especially around the mouth, fingers, and toes; diarrhea; headache; loss of appetite; mild stomach pain; nausea; taste changes; tiredness; vomiting; weakness.

Precaution:

Before taking Ritomune (Ritonavir), tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.

Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: diabetes, heart problems (coronary artery disease, heart attack), hemophilia, high cholesterol/triglycerides, gout/high uric acid in the blood, liver problems (such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C), pancreatitis
