Viro Z 100mg Tablet contains zidovudine (100 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Reverse transcriptase inhibition: Zidovudine blocks an enzyme called reverse transcriptase that HIV needs to convert its RNA genetic material into DNA, a necessary step for the virus to reproduce in human cells.

• Viral DNA chain termination: Once inside infected cells, zidovudine becomes activated through a process called phosphorylation and then competes with natural building blocks needed for viral DNA formation.

• Prevention of viral replication: By becoming incorporated into the growing viral DNA chain, zidovudine causes premature termination of DNA formation, effectively stopping the virus from completing its replication cycle.

• Viral load reduction: Through these mechanisms, zidovudine helps reduce the amount of HIV in your bloodstream, allowing your immune system to partially recover and function better.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the package.

• Maintain a balanced diet rich in protein and calories to support your immune system while managing HIV infection. Foods like lean meats, eggs, beans, and dairy can help prevent weight loss.

• Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day, as this helps your body process medicines and may reduce the intensity of some side effects like nausea.

• Do regular moderate exercise and stress reduction techniques to support immune health.
