Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Pifeltro is an antiviral used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection in adults. Your doctor may prescribe this drug as part of a regimen if you have never received treatment before. It can also be used to replace the current regimen in people with suppressed viral load.
Pifeltro works by preventing the replication of HIV viral particles. Pifeltro works to slow and potentially suppress the ongoing infection by stopping viral replication.
