Nevirapine
Uses
Nevipan is used in the treatment to suppress the HIV virus and preventing it from infecting the immune system in the body
How it Works
Nevipan is not recomended to be used on its own, this is because that the virus can become rapidly resistant to treatment if monotherapy is used. Nevipan as a NNRTI (non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) blocks the activity of the reverse transcriptase (RT) viral enzyme by biding to the NNRTI pocket on the enzyme. this directly interferes with the enzymes ability to replicate the HIV virus DNA material thus slowing down the virus from spreading. Nevipan helps kepping the level of HIV virus as low as possible which minimizes the chance of developing AIDS in patients
