1. What is the Twinaqt drug and what is it used for
The drug Twinact contains two active substances that are used to treat HIV infection: dolutegravir and lamivudine. Dolutegravir belongs to a group of antiretroviral drugs called integrase inhibitors (InI). Lamivudine belongs to a group of antiretroviral drugs called nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs).
Indications for use
Twinaqt generic Dovato is used in adults and adolescents over 12 years of age with a body weight of at least 40 kg for the treatment of HIV infection (human immunodeficiency virus).
The method of action of the drug Twinact
The drug Twinaqt does not cure HIV infection, but reduces the amount of the virus in your body and keeps it at a low level. The drug also increases the number of CD4+ cells in your blood. CD4+ cells are a type of white blood cells that help your body fight infection.
Not all people respond to treatment with Twinact in the same way. Your doctor will monitor the effectiveness of your treatment.
If there is no improvement or you feel worse, you should consult a doctor.
