How Avonza Tablet Works?

Avonza Tablet containing Lamivudine 300 mg and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg are in a class of drugs called nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). These medicines work by interfering with a specific enzyme called reverse transcriptase, which is essential for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) to replicate. Efavirenz 600 mg is another medicine that is part of a different class of medicines called non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). It also inhibits HIV replication by targeting the enzyme reverse transcriptase. When used in combination, these three drugs work together to reduce the amount of virus that is present in the body and to slow down the progression of HIV infection.
