Directions for Use

Swallow this tablet whole with a glass of water. Take it with food to increase absorption and reduce stomach upset. Follow your doctor's instructions regarding how often to take it. This medicine works best when taken at regular intervals, so set a reminder to take it at the same times each day. Do not skip doses, as missing doses can reduce the medicine's effectiveness and increase the risk of the virus becoming resistant.

Storage and disposal

Store this medicine at room temperature away from light and moisture. Keep it out of the reach of children. Do not use after the expiry date. Dispose of unused medicine according to local pharmacy disposal guidelines.

Quick Tips

  • Take this medicine exactly as prescribed, at the same times each day, to keep consistent levels in your body.
  • Missing doses can reduce effectiveness and make the virus resistant to treatment.
  • Regular blood tests are needed to monitor your health and ensure the medicine is working.
  • You can still develop infections while taking this medicine, so continue to take precautions to prevent illness.
  • Practice safe sex and do not share needles or personal items to avoid transmitting HIV to others.

Dosage

Overdose

Taking more than the prescribed dose of this medicine may cause severe side effects such as extreme tiredness, severe nausea, vomiting, or difficulty breathing. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Zidovudine works by inhibiting reverse transcriptase, an enzyme that HIV uses to replicate its genetic material and spread. By blocking this enzyme, the medicine prevents the virus from reproducing, which helps control the infection and slows disease progression.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor about all other medicines you are taking, including over-the-counter medicines and supplements. In particular, if you are taking other antiretroviral medicines, painkillers, or antifungal medicines, inform your doctor, as they may interact with this medicine. Never start any new medicine without consulting your doctor first.

Interactions with food items

Take this tablet with food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset. Avoid or strictly limit alcohol consumption, as alcohol may increase your risk of liver damage.
