ATH code: J05AF01.
Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Mechanism of action
Zidovudine - antiviral drug, analogue of thymidine, highly active against retroviruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Zidovudine is subject to phosphorylation in both infected and intact cells with the formation of monophosphate by cellular thymidicinase. Subsequent phosphorylation of zidovudine monophosphate to zidovudine diphosphate, and then to zidovudine trifhosphate catalyzed by cell thymidylatelates and nonspecific kinases, respectively.
Zidovudine trifhosphate acts as an inhibitor and substrate for viral reverse transcriptase. The formation of a surusive DNA is blocked by the embedding of the 5th trifosphate in its chain, which leads to a chain cliff. Competition of Zidovudine Trifosphate for reverse HIV transcriptase is approximately 100 times stronger than the cell-polymerase of human DNA.
Zidovudine acts additive or synergistically with a large number of antiretroviral drugs, such as lamivudine, didanosine,-interferon, suppressing HIV replication in cell culture.
Development of resistance to thymidine analogues (zidovudine - one of them) occurs as a result of the gradual accumulation of specific mutations in 6 codons (41, 67, 70, 210, 215 and 219) reverse HIV transcriptase. Viruses acquire phenotypic resistance to thymidine analogues as a result of combined mutations in positions 41 and 215 or accumulation, at least 4 of 6 mutations. These mutations do not cause cross-resistance to other nucleoside analogues, which makes it possible to further apply for the treatment of HIV other reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
Two types of mutations lead to the development of multiple medicinal resistance.
In one case, mutations occur in 62, 75, 77, 116 and 151 positions of reverse HIV transcriptase, and in the second case we are talking about T69S mutation with inserting 6 pairs of nitrogenous bases in this position, which is accompanied by the appearance of phenotypic resistance to zidovudine, and Also to other nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Both types of these mutations significantly limit the therapeutic capabilities in HIV infection.
Reducing the sensitivity to Zidovudine in vitro isolates of HIV was observed with long-term treatment of HIV infection with Zidovudine.
Currently, the connection between the sensitivity to the in vitro zidovudine and the clinical effect of therapy has not been studied.
Research in vitro. Zidovudine in a lamivudine combination showed that zidovudine-resistant virus isolates become sensitive to zidovudine while simultaneously acquiring resistance to lamivudine. Clinical studies have demonstrated the fact that the use of Zidovudine in a combination with lamivudine delays the emergence of a virus resistant to zidovudine in patients who have previously received antiretroviral therapy.
Pharmacokinetics
Suction
Zidovudine is well absorbed after oral administration, bioavailability is 60-70%. The average values \u200b\u200bof the maximum concentration in the equilibrium state (C SS MAX) and the minimum concentration in the equilibrium state (C SS MIN) in the plasma when receiving 5 mg / kg of zidovudine every 4 hours were 7.1 and 0.4 μmol, respectively (or 1.9 and 0.1 μg / ml).
Bioequivalence
It was shown that in terms of the area under the pharmacokinetic curve "Concentration-time" (AUC) solution of zidovudine for reception inside bioequivalenten Zidovudine capsules.
Distribution
Bonding with blood plasma proteins is relatively low, is 34-38%.
Zidovudine penetrates B. spinal fluid, placenta, amniotic fluid, fetal blood, cum and breast milk.
Metabolism
5 "Zidovudine -Glucronid is the main ultimate metabolite of zidovudine, is determined in plasma and urine and is approximately 50-80% of the dose of the drug, which is excreted by the kidneys.
Election
The kidney clearance of zidovudine is much higher than creatine clearance, which indicates the predominant removal of zidovudine with the help of the channel secretion.
Special groups Patients
Children
In children over 5-6 months, pharmacokinetic indicators are similar to those in adults.
Zidovudine is well absorbed from the intestines, bioavailability is 60-74% with an average value of 65%. After receiving the zidovudine in doses of 120 mg / m 2 and 180 mg / m 2 as a solution for receiving inside, the maximum equilibrium concentration was 4.45 μm (1.19 μg / ml) and 7.7 microns (2.06 μg / ml ) respectively.
Pharmacokinetic data suggests that Zidovudine glucooner in newborns and breast-age children is reduced, which leads to an increase in bioavailability. Reducing the clearance and a longer half-life is recorded in breast-age children under 14 days, then pharmacokinetic parameters become similar to those in adults.
Elderly patients
Pharmacokinetics of Zidovudine in patients older than 65 years have not been studied.
In patients with severe renal failure, the maximum concentration of zidovudine in the plasma rises by 50% compared with that in patients without disturbing the function of the kidneys. The systematic exposure to Zidovudine (AUC) increases by 100%, the half-life does not change significantly. With a violation of the kidney function, there is a significant cumulation of the main metabolite 5 "-Glucronida of Zidovudine, but the signs toxic action It is not detected. Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis do not affect the elimination of Zidovudine, at the same time removal of the 5 "-glucronida of the Zidovudine increases.
With liver failure, the Cumulation of Zidovudine may be observed due to the reduction of glucuronization, which requires a dose correction of the drug.
Pregnancy
The pharmacokinetic parameters of Zidovudine in pregnant women do not change, the signs of cumulation of Zidovudine are not marked.
The concentration of Zidovudine in plasma in children at birth is the same as their mothers during childbirth.

Antiretroviral drug.
Embedded to a chain of viral DNA and blocks its education, contributing to the cliff. Competition of the drug for reverse HIV transcriptase is approximately 100 times stronger than the alpha polymerase of human cell DNA.
Active in relation to retroviruses, including human immunodeficiency virus. Zidovudine is phosphorylated in an affected and non-virus cells to monophosphate (MF) derivatives using cellular thymidicinase. Further phosphorylation of Zidovudine-MF to zidovudine di- and trifhosphate is catalyzed by cellular thymidicinase and nonspecific kinases, respectively.
When taking inside, it is well absorbed from the intestine, bioavailability is 60 -70%. In adults, the average equilibrium maximum and minimum concentration after taking into the solution of the retrovir in a dose of 5 mg / kg each 4 h is 7.1 and 0.4 μm (or 1.9 and 0.1 μg / ml), respectively; After receiving the retrovir capsules at a dose of 200 mg every 4 h - 4.5 and 0.4 μm (or 1.2 and 0.1 μg / ml), respectively; After an infusion for an hour of 2.5 mg / kg every 4 h - 4.0 and 0.4 μm (or 1.1 and 0.1 μg / ml).
The average T 1/2, the average general clearance and the volume of the distribution is 1.1 h, 27.1 ml / min / kg and 1.6 l / kg, respectively. Kidney clearance Zidovudine is much higher than creatine clearance, which indicates its preemptive excretion using the channel secretion. 5 "Glücronid Zidovudine is a major metabolite, and is determined in plasma and in the urine and is approximately 50-80% of the dose of the drug, which is derived through the kidneys. At / in the introduction of the drug, metabolite 3" amino-3 "-deoxitidimine is formed.
In children over the age of 5-6 months, pharmacokinetic indicators are similar to those in adults. When taking inside, it is well absorbed from the intestine, bioavailability is 60-74% (on average - 65%). After taking inside the solution of the retrovir in a dose of 120 mg / m 2 of the body surface and 180 mg / m 2, the level of the average equilibrium maximum concentration is 4.45 and 7.7 microns (or 1.19 and 2.06 μg / ml). After in / in infusion at a dose of 80 mg / m 2, 120 mg / m 2 and 160 mg / m 2, it is respectively 1.46, 2.26 and 2.96 μg / ml. The average T 1/2 and the overall clearance is 1.5 hours and 30.9 ml / min / kg, respectively. The main metabolite is 5 "- glucuronide. After the introduction of 29%, the dose of the drug is excreted unchanged with the urine and 45% dose - in the form of glucuronide. The newborn under 14 days has a decrease in bioavailability, a decrease in clearance and lengthening T 1/2.
2-4 hours after oral administration in adults, zidovudine glucurone, with a subsequent increase in its average ratio of the concentration of zidovudine in the spinal fluid and in the plasma is 0.5, and in children in 0.5-4 hours - 0.52-0.85 . Pregnant women are not observed signs of Cumulation of Zidovudine, and its pharmacokinetics are similar to that of non-deaths. Zidovudine passes through the placenta and is determined in the amniotic fluid and in the blood of the fetus. The concentration of Zidovudine in plasma in children at birth is the same as in mothers during childbirth. Exactly in sperm and breast milk (after one-time intake at a dose of 200 mg, the average concentration in milk corresponds to such in serum). The binding of the drug with plasma proteins is 34-38%.
In patients with severe renal failure C Max Zidovudine in the plasma increased by 50% compared with its concentration in patients without disrupting the kidney function. The system exposure of the drug (is defined as the area under the curve of the concentration-time ratio) increased by 100%; T 1/2 is significantly violated. In renal failure there is a significant cumulation of the main metabolite of glucuronide, but not observed signs of toxic. Gemo- and peritoneal dialysis do not affect the elimination of Zidovudine, at the same time removal of glucuron enhanced.
With liver failure, the Cumulation of Zidovudine may be observed due to the reduction of glucuronization (requires a dose adjustment).
The development of resistance to thymidine analogues (including zidovudine) occurs as a result of the gradual appearance of specific mutations in 6 codons (41, 67, 70, 210, 215 and 219) of reverse HIV transcriptase. Viruses acquire phenotypic resistance to thymidine analogues as a result of combined mutations in codons 41 and 215 or accumulation, at least 4 of 6 mutations. Mutations do not cause cross-resistance to other nucleosides, which allows to use other inhibitors of reverse transcriptase to the treatment of HIV infection.
Two types of mutations lead to the development of multiple drug resistance. In one case, mutations occur in 62, 75, 77, 116 and 151 codons of reverse HIV transcriptase, in the second case we are talking about T69S mutations with insertion to the 6th pair of nitrogen bases corresponding to this position, which is accompanied by the appearance of phenotypic resistance to Zidovudine , as well as to other nucleoside inhibitors of reverse transcriptase. Both types of these mutations significantly limit the therapeutic capabilities in HIV infection. The decrease in the sensitivity to Zidovudine was observed with long-term treatment of HIV infection with retrovir. Currently, the link between sensitivity to Zidovudine has not yet been studied. in vitro. and the clinical effect of therapy. The use of Zidovudine in a combination with lamivudine delays the appearance of a virus resistant to zidovudine in the event that the patients had not previously carried out antiretroviral therapy.
Zidovudine is used in combined antiretroviral therapy together with other nucleoside inhibitors of reverse transcriptase and drugs from other groups (protease inhibitors, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors.)
Treatment of HIV infection in combined antiretroviral therapy in children and adults; Reducing the frequency of transplacentate transfer of HIV from the mother to the fetus.
Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug, neutropenia (number of neutrophils less than 0.75 · 10 9 / l); Reducing the hemoglobin (less than 75 g / l or 4.65 mmol / l), children's age (up to 3 months).
With caution: inhibition of bone marrowing, vitamin B 12 and folic acid deficiency, liver failure.
Earlier, 14 weeks of pregnancy is possible only if the expected effect of therapy exceeds the potential risk to the fetus. At the time of treatment, breastfeeding should be stopped.

When in / in the introduction within 2-12 weeks, the most often arise: anemia, leukopenia, neutropenia.
When preventing the transfer of HIV infection from Mother to the fruit in children there is a decrease in the content of hemoglobin. Anemia disappears after 6 weeks after the completion of therapy.
Lamivudine moderately increases with Max Zidovudine (by 28%), but does not change the AUC. Zidovudine does not affect the pharmacokinetics of Lamivudine. The probenecide reduces glucuronization and increases T 1/2 and AUC of Zidovudine. The renal excretion of glucuronide and zidovudine in the presence of a probebox is reduced.
Ribavirin is an antagonist of Zidovudine (their combination should be avoided).
A combination with rifampicin leads to a decrease in AUC for zidovudine by 48 ± 34% (the clinical value of this change is not known).
Zidovudine suppresses the intracellular phosphorylation of the staudine; Reduces the concentration of phenytoin in the blood (while simultaneously assigning the level of phenytoin level in plasma).
Paracetamol, aspirin, codeine, morphine, indomethacin, ketoprofen, naproxen, oxazepam, oilzapam, cimetidine, clofibrate, dapson, isoprinozin can disrupt the zidovudine metabolism (competitively inhibit glucurium or suppress microsomal metabolism in the liver). Such combinations should be approached with caution.
Retrovir combination with nephrotoxic or myelotoxic drugs (especially with emergency assistance) - pentamidine, dapson, pyrimethanic, co-trimoxazole, amphotericin, flucitosine, ganciclovir, interferon, vincristeine, vinblastine, doxorubicin - increases the risk of retrovir adverse reactions (kidney function is required, Blood indicators and reduction of doses, if necessary).
Radiation therapy enhances the myelosuppressive action of Zidovudine.
Inside (capsules, solution for intake). Adults and children over 12 years old. Recommended dose 500-600 mg / day in 2-3 receptions in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. Daily dose efficiency of less than 1000 mg for the treatment and prevention of HIV-associated complications is not established.
Children from 3 months to 12 years. Daily dose - 360-480 mg / m 2 in 3-4 receptions in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. The effectiveness of the daily dose is less than 720 mg / m 2 (180 mg / m 2 every 6 h) for the treatment and prevention of neurological complications of HIV infection is not established. The maximum dose should not exceed 200 mg every 6 hours.
Prevention of HIV transmission from mother to the fetus. Effective 2 prophylaxis schemes.
1. Pregnant women - 500 mg / day (100 mg 5 times a day), starting from 14 weeks before the start of childbirth. During childbirth - in / in, while the cord will be imposed on the clamp.
Newborn - 2 mg / kg every 6 hours, starting from the first 12 hours after birth to 6 weeks. If it is impossible to receive inside, assigned to / c.
2. Pregnant women - 300 mg 2 times a day from 36 weeks before the start of childbirth, and then every 3 hours before the end of childbirth.
With severe renal failure, a dose of 300-400 mg / day is recommended. Depending on the reaction from the peripheral blood and clinical effect, further adjustment of the dose can be carried out. For patients with a terminal stage of renal failure in hemo- or peritoneal dialysis, 100 mg every 6-8 hours.
V / B. (Solution for infusion), by slow infusion in a diluted form for 1 hour. The solution is administered only until the patients can take the drug inside.
Breeding
A solution for in / in infusion must be diluted before administration. The desired dose (see below) is added to a 5% glucose solution for B / in administration and mix with it so that the final concentration of zidovudine was 2 mg / ml or 4 mg / ml. Such solutions remain stable for 48 hours at a temperature of 5 ° C and 25 ° C.
Since the antimicrobial preservative is absent in the solution of retrovir, dilution should be carried out under conditions of complete asepsis, immediately before administration; Unused part of the solution in the bottle should be destroyed. When clouding, it should be pulled out.
Adults and children over 12 years old - 1-2 mg / kg every 4 h. This dose with / in the introduction of a retrovir provides the same exposure of the drug, as well as the dose of zidovudine 1.5 mg / kg or 3 mg / kg every 4 h ( 600 or 1200 mg / day in patients weighing a body of 70 kg) when taking inside. The efficiency of a lower dose in the treatment or prevention of HIV-associated neurological complications and malignant tumors is unknown.
Children from 3 months to 12 years. Information on the use of retrovir for in / in infusion in children is insufficient. The drug was prescribed in various doses from 80 to 160 mg / m 2 every 6 hours (320-640 mg / m 2 / day). Doses of the drug between 240-320 mg / m 2 per day in 3-4 receptions are comparable with doses of 360 mg / m 2 to 480 mg / m 2 per day in 3 4 receptions when taking inside, however, how effective they are currently not installed.
Prevention of HIV transmission from mother to the fetus. Pregnant women, starting with 14 weeks before the start of childbirth, it is recommended to prescribe a retrovir inside. During the birth, the retrovir is prescribed to / c at a dose of 2 mg / kg in the form of infusion for 1 hour, and then in the form of a continuous infusion at a dose of 1 mg / kg / h until the clip was imposed on the umbilical.
The newborn retrovir is prescribed inside, starting from the first 12 hours after birth to 6 weeks. If it is impossible to use inside, prescribed a / c at a dose of 1.5 mg / kg in the form of infusion for 30 minutes every 6 hours.
With severe renal failure, a dose of 1 mg / kg is recommended 3-4 times a day intravenously. This dose is equivalent to the daily dose of Zidovudine 300-400 mg when taking inside, recommended for this category of patients. Depending on the reaction from the peripheral blood and clinical effect, further adjustment of the dose may be required. For patients with a finite step of renal failure, which are in hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, a dose of zidovudine 100 mg is recommended every 6-8 h.
Symptoms: Fatigue, headache, vomiting, changes in blood indicators (very rarely).
Treatment: Symptomatic therapy. Gemo- and peritoneal dialysis are ineffective to remove zidovudine from the body, but enhance the removal of its metabolitis - glucuronide.
In case of liver failure, if necessary, the dose adjustment and / or increase the interval between the introductions.
When the hemoglobin level decreases to 75-90 g / l (4.65-5.59 mmol / l) or decrease the number of leukocytes to 0.75-1 · 10 9 / l change the dosage of the drug or cancel it.
Special caution should be observed in the treatment of elderly patients (the age reduction of the kidney function and changes in peripheral blood indicators should be taken into account.
A solution for infusions cannot be entered in / m.
It is necessary to inform the patient about the danger of use simultaneously with the retrovir of the drugs of non-prescription leave and that the use of retrovir does not prevent HIV infection through sexual contact or infected blood. It is necessary to take appropriate security measures.
Retrovir does not cure from HIV infection, patients retain the risk of developing a detailed picture of the disease with the suppression of immunity and the occurrence of opportunistic infections and malignant neoplasms. In AIDS, retrovir reduces the risk of developing opportunistic infections, but does not reduce the risk of lymph.
Pregnant women who have the prevention of HIV transmission to the fetus should be informed about the risk of fetal infection despite the therapy.
Anemia (is usually observed after 6 weeks from the start of the use of Retrovir, but sometimes it can develop earlier), neutropenia (usually develops 4 weeks after the start of treatment retrovir, but sometimes it occurs before), leukopenia may occur in patients with a deployed clinical picture of HIV infection, Receiving retrovir, especially in high doses (1200-1500 mg / day), and having reduced bone marrowing before the start of treatment.
During the period of treatment, the retrovirus in patients with a deployed clinical picture of HIV infection must be controlled by blood tests at least 1 time in 2 weeks during the first 3 months of therapy, and then monthly. In the early stage of AIDS (when bone marrowing is still within normal), the side reactions from the blood are rarely developed, so blood tests are carried out less often, 1 time in 1-3 months (depending on the general condition of the patient).
If the hemoglobin content decreases to 75-90 g / l (4.65-5.59 mmol / l), the number of neutrophils decreases to 0.75-1.0 · 10 9 / l, the daily dose of retrovir should be reduced to the recovery of indicators blood or retrovir must be canceled for 2-4 weeks. Before restoring blood indicators. Usually, the picture of the blood is normalized after 2 weeks, after which the retrovir in the reduced dosage should be prescribed again. In children, hemotransfusion may be required in pronounced anemia (despite the decline in the dose of retrovir).
The lactic acidosis and pronounced hepatomegaly with steatosis may have a fatal outcome, both under mono- and for multicomponent therapy with retrovir. The risk of developing these complications increases in women. In all cases, the appearance of clinical or laboratory signs of milk acid acidosis or toxic liver damage should be canceled.
When solving the question of the possibility of driving the car, the likelihood of developing such adverse reactions as dizziness, drowsiness, inhibition, convulsions should be taken into account.
The use of the drug for the prevention of HIV transmission from mother to the fetus helps to reduce the frequency of HIV transmission from the mother to the fetus. The long-term consequences of this prevention are unknown. It is impossible to completely exclude the possibility of carcinogenic influence. It should be informed about this pregnant women.

Keep out of the reach of children.
a solution for receiving inward 50 mg / 5 ml - 2 years.
capsules 100 mg - 5 years.
solution for infusion 200 mg / 20 ml - 3 years.
Do not apply after the expiration date indicated on the package.
If possible, postnatal prophylaxis should be started in the first 6 hours after birth. Zidovudine is administered orally or - in the presence of violations by the gastrointestinal tract - intravenously. In Germany, the duration of the rate of oral standard prevention has been reduced from six to two (four) weeks (VOCKS-HAUCK, 2001).
With multiple birthdays, the newborn is recommended to carry out the prevention of Zidovudi-Mr for 4 weeks in the absence of additional risk factors. The premature newborn besides Zidovudine should get nevirapin: one dose if the mother received nevirapin during childbirth, or two doses, if the mother did not receive nevirapin. If less than an hour, the child should get the first dose of Neustrapin in the first 48 hours after birth (Stringer, 2003) from receiving non-virapin's mother before the child's birth. If the mother accepted non-virapin in the composition of the combined Art scheme, the dose for the newborn should be doubled to 4 mg / kg due to the possible induction of enzymes. In addition, newborns should obtain expanded prevention by Zidovudine according to the scheme for premature (see above) duration of four (Ferguson, 2008) to six (CDC, 2008a) weeks.
In newborns with additional risk factors, the combined prevention of zidovudine is recommended in combination with lamivudine. The factors of very high risk are premature oral infringement, amnionitis, high viral load from the mother before childbirth, the absence of the prevention of the perinatal transmission of HIV, cutting injury to the child during the cesarean section, as well as the aspiration of the hemorrhagic amniotic fluid from the gastrointestinal tract of the child. If there are additional risk factors, it is recommended to prescribe newborn combined prevention of zidovudine and la-mivudine, as well as two doses of nevirapine. However, data on pharmacokinetics of antiretrovi-rustic drugs in newborns is extremely small.
The combined prevention of zidovudine in combination with lamivudine should be started in the first 6-12 hours after the birth of the child. In addition, perinatal neviurapin prevention is recommended. If HIV infection in mothers is diagnosed only after delivery, the combined prevention, started in the first 48 hours after birth, is much more efficient than the monoprophylaxis, started only after third days (the frequency of the vertical transmission is 9.2% compared with 18.4%; Wade , 1998). However, even later the beginning of the prevention of zidovudine is better than the complete absence of prevention (the risk of perinatal infection is 18.4% compared with 26.6%) (see Table 15.6). Even later, the beginning of postnatal prevention (\u003e 3 days) will benefit.
Review of pharmacokinetics studies in newborns is given in Table 15.7 (Ronkavilit, 2001 and 2002; Mirichnik, 2005; Blum, 2006; Chadwick, 2008; Hirt, 2008). To continuously improve the antiretroviral treatment of HIV infection in pregnant and antiretroviral prevention of the perinatal transmission, HIV must carefully register all clinical data. In the United States, there is a register of cases of admission of antiretroviral drugs during pregnancy, which helps track all possible teratogenic effects of antiretroviral media on the basis of reports on developmental deposits Table 15.7.Studies of antiretroviral prevention in newborns Reduction trade nameAverage daily doseMost frequent side effectsResearchAZT Retrovir®2 mg / kg 4 times a day 2 mg / kg 2 times a day; then 2 mg / kg 3 times a day - premature<35 недель гестации с 15-го дня; недоношенным <30 недель гестации с 29-го дняАнемия, нейтропения Митохондриопатия при применении в комбинации с ламивудином(P)ACTG 076, 316, 321, 353, 354, 358; HIVNET 012 III PACTG 331(PI)3TC Эпивир®2 мг/кг 2 раза в сутки новорожденным (в возрасте <30 дней)Нарушения со стороны ЖКТ, рвота, в комбинации с другими препаратами - токсическое повреждение митохондрий.

Retrovir - antiviral pharmaceutical agent shown in use in HIV infection.
Instructions for use Retrovir
What is the retrovir composition and form of release?
The active ingredient in the antiviral drug retrovir is represented by Zidovudine, the amount of which is 100 milligrams in the capsule and 200 mg in the bottle. Solution excipients: hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide.
Retroviru includes auxiliary substances: Shellac, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, corn starch, in addition, iron oxide black, ammonium hydroxide 28%, solution of ammonium concentrated, propylene glycol, potassium hydroxide, as well as gelatin.
The drug retrovir is available in white capsules with the "GSYJU" designation on the housing, inside which is a white powder. Comes in blisters of 10 pieces. In addition, a transparent slightly opalescent solution is made, implemented in bottles of 20 milliliters. Sale is possible only after the recipe.
What is the retrovir action?
An antiviral drug whose activity is aimed at retroviruses, the most well-known representative of the human immunodeficiency virus, called the HIV abbreviation.
The mechanism of action of the drug is the ability of its active substance to violate the activities of the viral enzyme transcriptase, involved in the process of assembling the particles of the virus. As a result, the process of formation of alien DNA is disturbed, which slows down the progression of the symptoms of the disease.
Violation in the work of viral enzymes is carried out due to the structural similarity of the active substance of the drug and thymiditriphosphate. I embed to the nucleic acid chain, the derivatives of the Zidovudine violate the further processes of the DNA of the virus.
The use of retrovir leads to partial normalization of the "formula" of the blood, which increases the patient's body resistance to various dangerous factors, including infections.
It should be noted that the action of the retrovir does not carry a completely selective nature. The active ingredient drug suppresses not only the processes of assembling viral particles, but also chains of human DNA, although in significant smaller quantities. The degree of influence on the patient transcriptase is about 300 times lower.
The drug Retrovir is partially effective with respect to other viruses: hepatitis B, Epstein-Barra virus and some others. In experiments, minor antibacterial activity was also found, the overwhelming processes of the vital activity of individual representatives of the genus Enterobacteriaceae.
Adsorption from the intestine is complete. The patient introduced into the patient's body is quickly entered into systemic blood flow. Zidovudine penetrates through most fabric barriers. Metabolization processes are associated with liver activity. Half-life about an hour. The metabolites of the active substance are derived from the body with urine.
What are the retrovir testimony for use?
Retrovir readings Such:
Treatment of HIV infection in comprehensive therapy;
Prevention of the development of HIV infection in the fetus, if the mother has HIV-positive status.
The use of medication is possible only after laboratory confirmation of the diagnosis. In addition, during the use of a drug, a periodic assessment of the effectiveness of the activities carried out is required.
What are the retrovir contraindications to use?
Using the Drug Retrovir Instructions for use does not allow in the following cases:
A sharp decrease in neutrophil content in peripheral blood;
Reduced hemoglobin content;
Individual intolerance.
Relative contraindications Retrovir: an elderly patient age, renal failure, as well as a sharp depression of blood-forming processes, in addition, severe anemics.
What are the retrovir use and dosage?
Dosage Retrovir is selected individually, taking into account the activity of the blood formation system, body weight and other factors. Capsules can be used regardless of food in an amount of from 500 to 600 milligrams per day. Multiplicity of reception from 2 to 5 times.
The parenteral form of the drug Retrovir is used intravenously in an amount of from 1 to 2 milligrams per kilogram of the patient's body weight every 4 hours. The duration of therapeutic measures is determined by the attending physician, taking into account the effectiveness of the treatment.
Which retrovir side effects?
The use of drug retrovir both inward and intravenously, can lead to the appearance of the following side effects: anemic states, hepatitis, meteorism (increased gas formation), pigmentation of skin, vomiting, diarrhea, violations of the act of swallowing, anorexia, abdominal pain, headache, Sleep disorders, depressive conditions, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness. More Side Effects Retrovir Such: inflammatory changes in respiratory tract, urine delay, heart pain, skin allergic rash, anaphylactic reactions, metabolic disorders.
How to replace retrovir, what analogs are used?
Analogs Retrovir include Zido-Eich, Viro-Zeta, Timazid, Retrovir Aziti, Zidovirin, Zidovudin-Fereyn, Zidovudine, Azidothimidine.
Conclusion
Treatment of HIV infection must be integrated. The patient should adhere to all the recommendations of the specialist: the reception of drugs, full nutrition, therapeutic and security regime, the course reception of polyvitamins and multiminerals, regular observation in the medical institution.
