Product Overview
About Vocabria
Vocabria is an integrase inhibitor.
What it is used for
Vocabria reduces the amount of HIV in the blood and keeps it at a low level.
How it is used
Vocabria is available as tablets to be taken by mouth or as an injection given into a muscle of the hip or buttock. After being injected, the active substance is released slowly over a few weeks into the bloodstream. Before starting treatment, the doctor ensures that the patient agrees to keep to the schedule of injections because this is important to keep the virus under control and there is a risk that levels of the virus could increase or the virus could become resistant to treatment if doses are missed. Cabotegravir and rilpivirine tablets are taken daily by mouth for one month, after which Vocabria and rilpivirine injections are given monthly or every 2 months. If treatment with Vocabria is stopped, another treatment to suppress the virus must be started to minimise the risk that the virus could become resistant to treatment. Vocabria can only be obtained with a prescription and should be prescribed by a doctor who has experience in the management of HIV infection.
How it works
By blocking the enzyme integrase, Vocabria reduces the amount of HIV in the blood and keeps it at a low level. Vocabria does not cure HIV infection or AIDS, but it can hold off damage to the immune system and the development of infections and diseases associated with AIDS.
Active substance: Cabotegravir
