Indications & Clinical Uses

Efavir 200mg capsules are used as part of combination therapy to treat hiv-1 infection. They work by blocking hiv replication, helping to lower the amount of virus in the body. This medication is typically prescribed alongside other antiretrovirals for effective viral suppression. It is not a cure for hiv but supports long-term management of the condition.

Side Effects

Efavir 200mg capsules may cause dizziness, headache, or nausea, especially when starting treatment. Some people experience vivid dreams or difficulty sleeping. These effects are usually temporary and may lessen over time as the body adjusts to the medication.

Precautions & Warnings

Take efavirenz exactly as prescribed and do not skip doses to avoid resistance. Avoid taking with high-fat meals, as this can increase side effects. Use effective contraception if sexually active, as efavirenz may harm an unborn baby. Keep capsules in their original container to protect from light and moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Efavirenz can interact with many medications, including certain antidepressants, antifungals, and cholesterol drugs. Avoid alcohol and grapefruit juice while taking this medication. Always inform your healthcare provider about all prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal products you use.
