Dolutegravir Sodium, Lamivudine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate is a
generic medicine
of Tivicay film-coated tablets, Viread 245 mg film-coated tablets and
Epivir 300 mg film-
coated tablets. Dolutegravir Sodium, Lamivudine/Tenofovir Disoproxil
Fumarate is an
Antiviral
medicine
belonging
to
J05AF07
(nucleoside
and
nucleotide
reverse
transcriptase inhibitors), J05AF0 (nucleoside analogue) and J05AJ03
(other antivirals)
group.
Dolutegravir inhibits HIV integrase by binding to the integrase active
site and blocking
the strand transfer step of retroviral Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
integration which is
essential for the HIV replication cycle.
Lamivudine
is
a
nucleoside
analogue
which

main mode of action is
as a chain terminator of viral reverse transcription. The triphosphate
has selective
inhibitory activity against HIV-1 and HIV-2 replication in vitro, it
is also active against
zidovudine-resistant clinical isolates of HIV. No antagonistic effects
in vitro were seen
with
lamivudine
and
