Nelfinavir

Nelfinavir is an antiretroviral medication used in the treatment of HIV, a virus that attacks the immune system. It belongs to a class of drugs called protease inhibitors, which work by preventing the virus from replicating and spreading within the body.
Nelfinavir is often used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs to create a highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen. This combination therapy helps to suppress the virus to undetectable levels, improving the immune system’s function and reducing the risk of opportunistic infections and complications.
The medication is available in tablet form and is typically taken twice daily, with or without food. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and schedule to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment. Nelfinavir may interact with other medications, so inform your healthcare provider of all the medications you are currently taking.
While Nelfinavir is an essential component of HIV treatment, it is not a cure for the virus. It is vital to continue taking the medication as prescribed and attend regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan if necessary.
