WHAT NEVIRAPINE VOCATE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Nevirapine Vocate belongs to a group of medicines called
antiretrovirals, used in the treatment of Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) infection.
The active substance of your medicine is called nevirapine. Nevirapine
belongs to a class of anti-HIV
medicines called non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
(NNRTIs). Reverse transcriptase is an
enzyme that HIV needs in order to multiply. Nevirapine stops reverse
transcriptase from working. By
stopping reverse transcriptase from working, Nevirapine Vocate helps
control HIV-1 infection.
Nevirapine is indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infected adults,
adolescents and children three years and
above and able to swallow tablets. You must take nevirapine together
with other antiretroviral medicines.
Your doctor will recommend the best medicines for you.
Nevirapine Vocate prolonged-release tablets should only be used after
a two-week treatment with another
type of nevirapine medicine (immediate-release tablets or suspension),
unless you are currently on these
medicines and are swi

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Nevirapine is indicated in combination with other anti-retroviral
medicinal products for the treatment of
HIV-1 infected adults, adolescents, and children three years and above
and able to swallow tablets (see
section 4.2).
Nevirapine Vocate prolonged-release tablets are not suitable for the
14-day lead-in phase for patients starting
nevirapine.
Other nevirapine formulations, such as immediate-release tablets or
oral suspension, may be checked for
their availability and used accordingly (see section 4.2).
Most of the experience with nevirapine is in combination with
nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
(NRTIs). The choice of a subsequent therapy after nevirapine should be
based on clinical experience and
resistance testing (see section 5.1).
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Nevirapine Vocate should be administered by physicians who are
experienced in the treatment of HIV
infection.
Posology
_Adults _
The recommended dose of nevirapine for patients initiating nevirapine
therapy is one 200 mg immediate-
release tablet daily for the first 14 days (this lead-in period should
be used because it has been found to
lessen the frequency of rash), followed by one 400 mg
prolonged-release tablet once daily, in combination
with at least two additional antiretroviral agents.
Patients currently on a nevirapine immediate-release twice daily
regimen:
