About A Bec L Tablet

A Bec L Tablet belongs to a class of drugs called antiretrovirals used to treat HIV infection. A Bec L Tablet helps decrease the chance of developing AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system and destroys the white blood cells that help in fighting infection, making the individual susceptible to other infections or illnesses.

A Bec L Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Abacavir and Lamivudine. Both Abacavir and Lamivudine are nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. A Bec L Tablet works by interfering with the working of nucleotide and nucleoside reverse transcriptase enzymes necessary for virus reproduction. Together, A Bec L Tablet helps in treating HIV infection.

Take A Bec L Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take A Bec L Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition. Sometimes, you may experience headaches, tiredness, dizziness, nausea, diarrhoea, rash, and fever. Most of these side effects of A Bec L Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any components present in A Bec L Tablet or other medicines or foods (e.g. soya or peanut). If you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, please consult a doctor before taking A Bec L Tablet . Avoid breastfeeding while taking A Bec L Tablet as it may pass into breast milk. A Bec L Tablet is not recommended for children below 18 years of age. You are advised to avoid alcohol consumption with A Bec L Tablet as it may increase the risk of liver damage. Drive only if you are alert, as A Bec L Tablet may cause dizziness.

Disease/Condition Glossary

HIV infection: HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system and destroys the white blood cells that help in fighting infection, making the individual susceptible to other infections or illnesses.

HIV spreads through body fluids such as semen, vaginal fluid, and blood. If left untreated, this condition can lead to AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome).
