Patients must not have experienced virological failure on any prior antiretroviral therapy and must be known not to have harboured virus strains with mutations conferring significant resistance to any of the three components contained in Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir disoproxil Zentiva prior to initiation of their first antiretroviral treatment regimen., The demonstration of the benefit of the combination efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil is primarily based on 48-week data from a clinical study in which patients with stable virologic suppression on a combination antiretroviral therapy changed to efavir

IT IS USED FOR
EFAVIRENZ/EMTRICITABINE/TENOFOVIR DISOPROXIL ZENTIVA CONTAINS THREE
ACTIVE SUBSTANCES that are
used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection:
•
Efavirenz is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)
•
Emtricitabine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)
•
Tenofovir is a nucleotide
reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NtRTI)
Each of these active substances, also known as antiretroviral
medicines, work by interfering with an
enzyme (reverse transcriptase) that is essential for the virus to
multiply.
EFAVIRENZ/EMTRICITABINE/TENOFOVIR DISOPROXIL ZENTIVA IS A TREATMENT

THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir disoproxil Zentiva is a f
ixed-dose combination of efavirenz,
emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil. It is indicated for the
treatment of human immunodeficiency
virus-1 (HIV-1) infection in adults aged 18 years and over with
virologic suppression to HIV-1 RNA
levels of < 50 copies/ml on their current combination antiretroviral
therapy for more than three months.
Patients must not have experienced virological failure on any prior
antiretroviral therapy and must be
known not to have harboured virus strains with mutations conferring
significant resist
ance to any of the
t
hree components contained in Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir
disoproxil Zentiva prior to initiation
of their first antiretroviral treatment regimen (see sections 4.4 and
5.1).
The demonstration o
f the benefit of the combination efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir
disoproxil is
primarily based on 48-week data from a clinical study in which
patients with stable virologic
suppression on a combination antiretroviral therapy changed to
efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir
disoproxil (see section 5.1). No data are currently available from
clinical studies with combination
efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil in treatment-naïve or in
heavily pretreated patients.
No data are available to support the combination of
efavirenz/emtricitabin
