Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
- Zidoral Ln tablet works by inhibiting the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme, which is essential for viral replication.
- Lamivudine and zidovudine are converted inside the body into active triphosphate forms that cause premature termination of viral DNA synthesis.
- Nevirapine binds directly to reverse transcriptase and disrupts its catalytic activity.
- Together, these actions reduce the ability of HIV-1 to multiply in the body.
Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Other antiretroviral medicines containing lamivudine, nevirapine, or zidovudine should not be taken with this medicine, as it may result in duplication of therapy.
- Abacavir-containing fixed-dose combinations that include lamivudine and zidovudine may increase the risk of adverse effects when used together.
- Rifampicin and rifabutin can significantly reduce nevirapine plasma concentrations and may reduce its effectiveness.
- Antifungal agents, such as ketoconazole or fluconazole, can alter nevirapine plasma concentrations.
- Methadone levels may decrease due to nevirapine, which can result in withdrawal symptoms and may require dose adjustment.
- Oral contraceptives and other hormonal birth control methods may become less effective when taken with nevirapine.
- Medicines metabolized by liver enzymes (e.g., CYP3A4 or CYP2B6) may have reduced plasma concentrations when co-administered with nevirapine.
- Medicines used to treat tuberculosis, fungal infections, or seizures may require dose adjustments when used together with this medicine.
- Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole may increase lamivudine levels in the body.
- Valproic acid, atovaquone, and fluconazole may increase zidovudine exposure.
- Ribavirin may interfere with the activation of lamivudine and zidovudine and increase the risk of liver toxicity.
- Interferon alfa, with or without ribavirin, may increase the risk of serious liver-related adverse effects.
- St. John’s wort or herbal products containing it can significantly reduce nevirapine levels and should be avoided.
