Infoviride drug information
Drug Information: Infoviride is an antiretroviral drug. It is prescribed for Acquired Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV). Atazanavir slows the process of HIV infection but is not a definitive treatment. The HIV virus kills cells in the body called CD4 cells. These cells are white blood cells and are important because they protect the body against infections. If HIV is not treated, the body's immune system gradually weakens and loses its ability to defend itself against bacteria, viruses and other microbes. Infoviride is a fusion inhibitor antiviral drug that prevents HIV from entering T cells and preventing the infection from progressing.
Infovirotide is an antiretroviral (antiretroviral) drug that is prescribed as part of a combination therapy. It is prescribed, along with a number of other antiviral drugs, as part of combination therapy. Taking three or more antiretroviral drugs at the same time is more effective than taking a single drug. Combined use of different drugs reduces the risk of developing resistance to any of these drugs.
