"Duovir N is a combination antiretroviral medication (Lamivudine, Zidovudine, and Nevirapine) used as part of a Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) regimen following potential exposure to HIV. While highly effective at preventing viral integration when started within 72 hours, it is known for a significant side-effect profile. Most symptoms are manageable and temporary, but strict adherence to the 28-day course is the only way to ensure maximum protection
Next Steps
while the side effects can feel 'scary,' they are a sign the medicine is working to protect you.
Book a consultation so we can monitor your blood reports weekly and ensure you complete the full 28-day course safely and effectively."
