How the Medicine Works:
Reatix Kit Tablet is a fixed-dose combination of three antiretroviral drugs:
- Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate: Inhibits HIV reverse transcriptase, preventing viral replication.
- Lamivudine: Blocks the enzyme reverse transcriptase, reducing viral load.
- Efavirenz: A non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) that stops the virus from multiplying.
Together, these ingredients prevent the virus from replicating and help reduce HIV levels in the blood.
