Detailed Information

Introduction

Zepdon 400mg Tablet contains Raltegravir, an HIV medication belonging to a class of drugs called integrase inhibitors. It works by blocking the virus's ability to multiply and spread in your body, helping to reduce viral load and support your immune system. Zepdon is used as part of a complete HIV treatment plan and is not a cure for HIV or AIDS, but helps control the infection when taken consistently with other antiretroviral medicines.

This medication is suitable for adults and children aged 4 weeks and older weighing at least 3 kg. It is generally well-tolerated, though certain people—including those with liver disease, muscle disorders, or drug allergies—should discuss use with their doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, medical consultation is essential before starting treatment.

Key points

How it Works

By stopping this process, the medication prevents the virus from multiplying and spreading throughout your body. When taken regularly with other HIV medications, Zepdon helps reduce the amount of virus in your bloodstream, allowing your immune system to function more effectively and reducing the risk of HIV-related complications.
