Mechanism of action

Nevirapine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), while zidovudine and lamivudine are nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Together, they target different sites on the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme, preventing the virus from converting its RNA genome into DNA and integrating into host cells. This triple-drug combination is designed to reduce viral load and slow disease progression in HIV-infected patients.
