Tenvir Af 25mg Bottle Of 30 Tablets
Description
Tenvir-AF Tablet is an antiviral medicine used to treat Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection in adults. It contains tenofovir alafenamide as its active ingredient. This medicine works by preventing the multiplication of the HIV virus within the body, which helps lower the viral load in the blood and boosts immunity. It is not a cure for HIV but aids in controlling the infection and enhancing quality of life.
Taking Tenvir-AF Tablet regularly as prescribed by your doctor helps reduce the risk of HIV-related complications and also lowers the chance of transmitting the virus. It is important to take this medication at the same time each day for optimal results. Do not stop taking it abruptly without consulting your doctor, as this may make the infection more difficult to treat.
Tenvir-AF Tablet should always be taken with food and a glass of water to improve absorption. Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, stomach discomfort, and electrolyte imbalance. Most of these effects are temporary and tend to resolve on their own, but if they persist or cause discomfort, consult your doctor immediately.
Before starting Tenvir-AF Tablet, inform your doctor if you have any existing medical conditions such as liver disease, kidney problems, weak bones, or low immunity. Also, share details of any other medicines, supplements, or herbal products you are taking to avoid harmful interactions. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use this medication only after consulting their doctor.
Aside from taking Tenvir-AF Tablet, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is vital for managing HIV. Eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, avoid alcohol and smoking, and attend regular medical check-ups. Following your doctor’s advice closely will help you achieve the best outcomes from your treatment and lead a healthier life.
