Product Description

Duovir N Tablet is a fixed-dose combination antiretroviral medication used in the treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection. It has strong antiviral effects by combining two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), Lamivudine and Zidovudine, with a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), Nevirapine.

If you are pregnant, nursing, or have any medical issues, speak with your doctor before beginning treatment since routine blood tests could be required. HIV-positive people should seek guidance on safe sex practices, refrain from nursing, and refrain from sharing personal belongings.

Mechanism of Action:

Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), such as zidovudine and lamivudine, function by inhibiting HIV reverse transcriptase through nucleoside analogs.

By directly binding to reverse transcriptase and blocking its RNA- and DNA-dependent polymerase activities, the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) nevirapine efficiently stops the virus from replicating.
