About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Natclovir 250mg Injection contains Ganciclovir, an antiviral agent primarily used for the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in immunocompromised patients, such as those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). It inhibits viral DNA synthesis and is administered intravenously. The 250mg strength of Natclovir provides effective control of CMV retinitis, a serious complication in AIDS patients. The recommended dosage varies depending on the patient's condition and response, typically starting with a high initial dose followed by a maintenance dose. Monitoring for potential side effects like neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia is essential during treatment. Natclovir, with its potent antiviral activity, plays a crucial role in managing CMV infections and preserving vision in AIDS patients.
