Viramune Information

Viramune at CanadaPharmacyOnline.com

Brand Viramune (nevirapine) is manufactured in many countries worldwide, including Turkey. Generic nevirapine is available in many countries worldwide, including India. It is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards. The specific manufacturer of your dispensed medication may vary.

Important Information about Generic Nevirapine:

Generic nevirapine contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name Viramune. It must meet the same safety, effectiveness, and quality standards as the brand-name product. This means it is designed to work in the same way as Viramune. Studies have demonstrated bioequivalence between generic and brand-name nevirapine, indicating comparable absorption rates and overall effects. However, individual responses to any medication can vary. If you have any questions about using generic nevirapine, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

For more information about generic drug approval and bioequivalence, you can visit the FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/buying-using-medicine-safely/generic-drugs

Dosage:

Usage:

Viramune (nevirapine) is a prescription medication primarily used to treat Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV is a virus that weakens the immune system over time. Medicines like Viramune help keep the virus under control so the immune system stays stronger.

Mechanism of Action: Viramune (nevirapine) is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). It works by blocking HIV from making more copies of itself. This action lowers the amount of virus in the body, helping to protect the immune system from damage.

Take Viramune exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the Product Monograph in Canada accompanying the medication. Consult your doctor for personalized guidance and safe use.

Why is Viramune more affordable in Canada than in the United States?

Prescription drug prices, including Viramune, are generally lower in Canada than in the U.S. due to a combination of factors, primarily government price regulations, differing market dynamics, and other economic considerations.
