Ritomune 100 mg Tablet contains Ritonavir, a protease inhibitor used in HIV-1 antiretroviral regimens to boost plasma levels of co-administered protease inhibitors.

Mechanism of Action

Ritonavir inhibits the CYP3A4 enzyme, increasing the bioavailability and effectiveness of other protease inhibitors in ART. It also directly inhibits HIV-1 protease to prevent viral maturation. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Indivan 400 mg Capsule by Cipla contains Indinavir Sulfate, an HIV protease inhibitor used as part of combination antiretroviral therapy to suppress viral replication and support immune recovery.

Mechanism of Action

Indinavir inhibits the HIV-1 protease enzyme, preventing cleavage of viral polyproteins and blocking viral maturation.

Dosage & Administration

Unboosted dosing: 400 mg every 8 hours on an empty stomach; boosted with Ritonavir may allow once or twice daily dosing. Strict adherence is critical to prevent resistance.

Side Effects & Precautions

• Common: gastrointestinal upset, fatigue, kidney stones, metabolic alterations, lipodystrophy, raised bilirubin.

Alltera (Lopinavir 200 mg + Ritonavir 50 mg) Tablets is an antiretroviral medication belonging to the class of protease inhibitors. It is formulated as a fixed-dose combination to improve adherence and efficacy in HIV treatment.

Key Benefits

• Controls HIV viral replication and reduces viral load
• Boosts immune system function and CD4 counts
• Improves adherence by combining two drugs in one tablet

How It Works

Lopinavir inhibits HIV-1 protease, preventing cleavage of viral polyproteins into functional proteins. Ritonavir acts as a pharmacokinetic enhancer, increasing lopinavir plasma concentration by inhibiting CYP3A metabolism.

Dosage & Administration

Recommended dose: 2 tablets (200/50 mg) twice daily with food, or as directed by a healthcare provider. Pediatric dosing is weight-based.

Safety & Precautions

• Common side effects: diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, elevated lipids
