Patients with pancreatitis or at risk of pancreatitis should use this combination with caution. During treatment, your doctor may periodically monitor your blood counts, bone mineral density, and liver and kidney function to prevent serious complications.

Inform your doctor if you have a history of or currently have heart failure (QT prolongation), seizures, mental health conditions, pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), bone disease (osteonecrosis—death of bone tissue), fractures, liver conditions (chronic hepatitis B or C), or kidney problems. Notify your doctor if you are planning pregnancy or believe you may be pregnant. Breastfeeding is not recommended while taking Vianca tablet due to the risk of HIV transmission from mother to child.

Uses

Treatment of HIV infections

How it works

The reverse transcriptase enzyme produces copies of the DNA of HIV. Lamivudine and Tenofovir are Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Efavirenz is a Nonnucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor that directly inhibits the enzyme reverse transcriptase. This blocks the replication and reproduction of the virus.

How to Use

It is an orally available prescription drug. Your doctor will decide the dose and duration of Vianca tablet based on the disease condition and other factors. Always take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Take the tablet at the same time. Do not take an additional dose to compensate for the missed dose.

Side Effects

Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all drugs cause side effects, not everyone gets them. Serious: Rapid breathing Drowsiness Nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain Severe allergic reactions Severe mood disturbances, depression, and suicidal thoughts Confusion, forgetfulness, seizures, and tremor Liver toxicity Kidney damage Autoimmune disorders Common: Bloating, flatulence Headache Sleeplessness Skin reactions Wheezing, swelling, or lightheadedness Hair loss Diarrhea Bone disorders Weakness Anemia

Expert Tips

Inform your doctor about your underlying infections. If you have advanced HIV (AIDS), you may develop signs of infection and inflammation or worsen the signs of an existing infection once treatment is started. Report your doctor for side effects. It is mandatory to tell your medical professional if you are consuming other medicines that may damage your kidneys. Always consume the dose recommended by your doctor. Vianca tablet does not reduce the risk of transmitting HIV to others via sexual contact or blood contamination. You must continue the medication to avoid this complication.
