1. What is Maraviroc Tarbis and what is it used for
Maraviroc contains an active ingredient called maraviroc. Maraviroc belongs to a group of medicines calledCCR5 antagonists. Maraviroc acts by blocking the receptor called CCR5, which HIV uses to enter and infect blood cells.
Maraviroc is used to treat Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in adults, adolescents, and children aged 2 years and older, who weigh at least 10 kg.
Maraviroc should be taken in combination with other medicines that are also used to treat HIV infection. These medicines are all referred to asantiretroviralorantiretroviralmedicines.
As part of the combined treatment, Maraviroc reduces the amount of virus in your body and keeps it at a low level. This helps your body to increase the count of CD4 cells in the blood. CD4 cells are a type of white blood cell that are important for helping your body to fight off infections.

Other possible side effects of combined antiretroviral therapy for HIV
People taking combined antiretroviral therapy for HIV may develop other side effects.
Symptoms of infection and inflammation
People with advanced HIV infection (AIDS) have a weakened immune system and are more likely to develop severe infections (opportunistic infections). After starting treatment, the immune system becomes stronger, and the body begins to fight these infections.
They may developsymptoms of infection and inflammation, caused by:
- old, hidden infections that break out again when the body starts to fight them
- the immune system attacking healthy body tissues (autoimmune disorders).
The symptoms of autoimmune disordersmay appear many months after starting to take medications to treat HIV infection.The symptoms may include:
- muscle weakness
- weakness starting in the hands and feetand spreading to the body trunk
- palpitations or tremors
- hyperactivity (excessive restlessness and movement).
If you experience any symptoms of infection or if you notice any of the above symptoms:
?Inform your doctor immediately.Do not take other medications for the infection without consulting your doctor.
Joint pain, stiffness, and bone problems
Some patients taking combined antiretroviral therapy for HIV develop a condition calledosteonecrosis. In this condition, parts of the bone tissue die due to a reduction in blood supply to the bones.
The frequency of this condition is unknown. It is more likely to develop:
- if you have been taking combined therapy for a long time
- if you are also taking anti-inflammatory medications called corticosteroids
- if you drink alcohol
- if you have a severely weakened immune system
- if you are overweight.
The signs to watch out for include:
- joint stiffness
- pain (especially in the hip, knee, or shoulder)
- difficulty moving.
If you notice any of these symptoms:
?Inform your doctor.
