What is Nevirapine Er ?

Nevirapine ER (extended release) is an antiretroviral medication used primarily to treat HIV-1 infection and reduce the risk of HIV transmission. It works by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, crucial for viral replication, thereby helping to control the virus' load in the body. Offered in an extended-release formula, Nevirapine ER allows for more convenient once-daily dosing, improving adherence and treatment outcomes for patients.
