Indications & Clinical Uses

Zidovudine is primarily used to treat HIV infection by slowing the progression of the virus. It may also be prescribed for post-exposure prophylaxis in certain high-risk situations. This medication helps reduce viral load when used as part of a combination therapy. It is not a cure for HIV but supports long-term viral suppression.

Side Effects

Retrovir works by interfering with the virus’s ability to replicate, helping maintain immune function. Common effects include improved energy levels and reduced frequency of infections in treated individuals. Some users report mild gastrointestinal discomfort during early use.

Precautions & Warnings

Keep Retrovir vials in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not use if the solution appears discolored or contains particles. Always check the expiration date before use. Discard any unused medication as directed by local guidelines.

Avoid Interactions

Zidovudine may interact with other medications that affect blood cell counts or liver function. Alcohol and certain antibiotics can increase the risk of side effects. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you are taking.
