About AURO-EFAVIRENZ

AURO-EFAVIRENZ is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Efavirenz, used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection in combination with other antiretroviral agents.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and adolescents (≥3 months of age) with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 18 kg/m².
• Combination therapy with other antiretroviral agents to prevent HIV-1 disease progression and reduce the risk of transmission.

Active Ingredient & Action

EFavirenz is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) that works by inhibiting the replication of the HIV-1 virus. It binds to the reverse transcriptase enzyme, preventing the virus from converting its genetic material into DNA, thereby inhibiting viral replication and reducing the viral load in the body.
