Maraviroc is a prescription medicine used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. It belongs to a class of drugs called CCR5 antagonists, which slow the spread of the virus by preventing HIV from entering host cells. Maraviroc is often used with other antiretroviral drugs as part of antiretroviral therapy.
Before using Maraviroc, patients need to have a CCR5 receptor test to make sure the drug is effective for them. While taking Maraviroc, patients should follow their doctor's advice and have regular checkups to monitor their condition and drug effectiveness.
Although Maraviroc can help control HIV infection, it does not cure HIV or AIDS. Patients may experience side effects when using Maraviroc, including headache, nausea, and fatigue. If serious adverse reactions or allergic reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately.
Be sure to follow your doctor's advice and use Maraviroc correctly as prescribed.
Instructions for use: Please take MARAVIROC on an empty stomach at a fixed time every day, that is, once a day. Please do not take it with meals. The effect is better when taken on an empty stomach. While taking MARAVIROC, please avoid eating grapefruit or its related products as it may affect the effectiveness of the drug. While taking this product, please try to avoid activities that require a high degree of concentration.
Dosing Guidelines: For adult patients, the recommended starting dose is 300 mg once daily. Based on personal tolerance and physician recommendation, dosage may be adjusted to 600 mg daily. For pediatric patients, the dosage will be based on the physician's prescription and the patient's weight. Please strictly follow the physician's instructions. If you have any questions or concerns, seek help from a medical professional immediately.
MARAVIROC is an antiviral drug mainly used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Some side effects may occur when using MARAVIROC, including headache, nausea, diarrhea and fatigue. Some patients may also experience skin reactions, such as rashes or allergies. A small number of patients may experience abnormal liver function, muscle pain, or dizziness. If you develop serious side effects, such as difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat, or severe skin reactions, seek medical attention immediately. Consult your doctor in detail before using MARAVIROC and pay close attention to your body's reactions.

Pregnancy information:
If you are taking Maraviroc and plan to become pregnant, be sure to tell your doctor. There is insufficient data on the effects of maraviroc on pregnancy, so it is important to discuss the risks and benefits.
During pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, medications may cause potential harm to the fetus. Discuss with your doctor whether your medication dose needs to be adjusted or if you need to switch to an alternative treatment.
Please do not stop taking maraviroc on your own as this may have negative effects on your health. In addition, you need to receive regular follow-up examinations from your doctor during pregnancy to ensure the health of you and your baby.
In summary, you should communicate with your doctor before and after pregnancy to ensure that your medication regimen is safe and effective. I wish you and your baby good health!
