WHAT TRIUMEQ IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Triumeq is a medicine that contains three active ingredients used to treat HIV infection: abacavir, lamivudine and dolutegravir. It is a purple, biconvex, film-coated oval tablet, debossed with “572 Trı” on one face. Abacavir and lamivudine belong to a group of anti-retroviral medicines (medicines used to treat HIV infection) called _nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs)_, and dolutegravir belongs to a group of anti-retroviral medicines called _integrase inhibitors (INIs)_. Triumeq is used to treat HIV (HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS) INFECTION in adults and children over 12 years old who weigh at least 40 kg. Before you are prescribed Triumeq your doctor will arrange a test to find out whether you carry a particular type of gene called HLA-B*5701. Triumeq should not be used in patients who are known to carry the HLA- B*5701 gene. Patients with this gene are at a high risk of developing a serious hypersensitivity (allergic) reaction if they use Triumeq (see ‘hypersensitivity reactions’ in section 4).

CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS _ _ Triumeq is indicated for the treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected adults and adolescents above 12 years of age weighing at least 40 kg (see sections 4.4 and 5.1). Before initiating treatment with abacavir-containing products, screening for carriage of the HLA- B*5701 allele should be performed in any HIV-infected patient, irrespective of racial origin (see section 4.4). Abacavir should not be used in patients known to carry the HLA-B*5701 allele. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Therapy should be prescribed by a physician experienced in the management of HIV infection. Posology _Adults and adolescents (weighing at least 40kg) _ The recommended dose of Triumeq in adults and adolescents is one tablet once daily._ _ Triumeq should not be administered to adults or adolescents who weigh less than 40 kg because it is a fixed-dose tablet that cannot be dose reduced.

Separate preparations of dolutegravir, abacavir or lamivudine are available in cases where discontinuation or dose adjustment of one of the active substances is indicated. In these cases the physician should refer to the individual product information for these medicinal products. 2 _Missed doses _ If the patient misses a dose of Triumeq, the patient should take it as soon as possible, providing the next dose is not due within 4 hours.
