Lopinavir and ritonavir are two medications used in combination with other anti-HIV medications to help prevent the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from reproducing. The HIV virus is the virus responsible for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).
Lopinavir and ritonavir belong to a class of medications known as protease inhibitors. Protease is an enzyme that is needed by HIV for reproduction. Lopinavir and ritonavir block the action of protease. Ritonavir also slows down the body's breakdown of lopinavir, making more lopinavir available to the body.
D Flavone Vitamin D Supp (Vitamin-d3) does not cure AIDS and does not prevent it from being spread to others. It is used in combination with other anti-HIV medications to slow further growth or reproduction of HIV and seems to slow down the destruction of the immune system. This may help to delay the development of problems such as infections related to AIDS or HIV disease.
