Viraday Tablets

Product Description

Viraday is a fixed-dose combination medication used in the treatment of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection. It contains three active ingredients:

1. Emtricitabine (200 mg): Emtricitabine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that inhibits the reverse transcriptase enzyme, disrupting the replication of the HIV virus.

2. Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (300 mg): Tenofovir is another nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI). It also works by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, preventing the replication of the HIV virus.

3. Efavirenz (600 mg): Efavirenz is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). It works by binding to and inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, disrupting the replication of the HIV virus.

Viraday is typically used as a part of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) to control HIV infection and reduce the risk of disease progression. The combination of these three drugs in a single tablet simplifies the treatment regimen and promotes adherence.

Here are some key points about Viraday tablets:

• Indications: Viraday is indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults.

• Dosage: The standard dosage is one tablet taken orally once a day. The tablet is usually taken on an empty stomach, preferably at bedtime.

• Adherence: Adherence to the prescribed regimen is crucial for the effectiveness of HIV treatment. Missing doses or not taking the medication as directed can lead to reduced efficacy and the development of drug resistance.

• Side Effects: Common side effects may include dizziness, headache, nausea, and vivid dreams. Serious side effects such as skin rash or liver problems are less common but may occur. It's important to report any severe or persistent side effects to a healthcare provider.

• Pregnancy: Viraday should be used with caution during pregnancy, and the potential risks and benefits should be discussed with a healthcare provider.

Always follow the guidance of your healthcare provider, and do not modify your treatment plan without consulting them. They can provide personalized information based on your medical history and monitor your response to the medication
