Viraday

Uses of Viraday

HIV can be controlled and managed by using one of the most effective drugs in combating the infection – Viraday. Also composed of three major antiretroviral drugs, this medicine is highly capable of assisting the body’s immune system and allowing it to work more effectively in diminishing high amounts of viral load inside the body. It gives individuals another chance to live healthily. Its generic version is Emtricitabine/Tenofovir/Efavirenz.

HIV-diagnosed people who have past diseases, such as kidney and liver disease and problems involving the bones, may be required to undergo a series of tests to ensure that Viraday is safe for them to consume. Note that some drugs can ignite past diseases, making them active again. Once this occurs, it becomes hard for HIV to be treated.
