Introduction

Abec L tablet contains the active ingredients Abacavir and lamivudine. It is an anti-retroviral drug that belongs to the family known as nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). It is used to treat HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). HIV-1 is a virus known as the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), which targets and eradicates immune system cells, ultimately weakening the body's defense against infections. If left untreated, it can result in death. While this medication does not offer a complete cure, it effectively lowers the virus levels in your body and boosts the count of CD4 cells in your bloodstream. These cells play a crucial role in assisting your body's fight against infections.
