Raltegravir (brand name Isentress) is a drug used to treat HIV infection. It belongs to a class of drugs called integrase inhibitors, which prevent the HIV virus from replicating in human cells. Often used with other antiretroviral drugs to increase the effectiveness of treatment.
Raltegravir is usually taken by mouth in tablet form, taken twice daily. During the course of taking the medicine, you should strictly follow the doctor's instructions and do not change the dosage or stop using it at will. During use, some side effects may occur, such as headache, nausea, diarrhea, etc., but most patients can tolerate it.
In Hong Kong, Raltegravir is one of the important drugs for the treatment of HIV infection, and doctors will prescribe it according to the patient's specific situation. Patients should follow medical advice when using it, have regular follow-up visits, and regularly check liver function and other related indicators to ensure the efficacy and safety of the drug.
How to use: RALTEGRAVIR is usually taken by mouth twice daily. Can be taken with or without food. If it is necessary to take antacids with high aluminum or magnesium content, it is recommended to leave a gap of 2 hours between the two. Avoid taking with zinc, calcium, magnesium or iron supplements.
Dosing Guidelines: A common starting dose for adults is 400 mg twice daily. Your doctor may adjust the dosage based on condition and tolerance. The dosage for children is based on weight and age and needs to be determined by your doctor. In any case, patients should use the drug strictly in accordance with the doctor's recommendations and should not adjust the dosage or stop using it on their own.
