Epivir 150 mg contains lamivudine (also known as "3TC"), a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) used with other antiretroviral medications to treat HIV-1 infection.
Inside cells, lamivudine is converted into an active triphosphate form that inhibits HIV reverse transcriptase and blocks viral DNA synthesis. When taken as part of a complete antiretroviral regimen, it helps reduce viral replication.
Epivir is mainly used to treat people living with HIV and is not used on its own for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). For prevention, clinical guidelines typically recommend dedicated PrEP options, such as tenofovir/emtricitabine or long-acting cabotegravir, depending on eligibility and local guidance.
For PrEP or post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) options, speak with a Canadian clinician to choose the most appropriate one.
Abacavir + lamivudine (ABC/3TC) is a widely used backbone combination for HIV treatment. In some countries, it is available as a single fixed-dose tablet (for example, Epzicom or Kivexa) and is taken together with at least one other antiretroviral medication.
Before starting abacavir-containing regimens, clinicians typically consider human leukocyte antigen B*5701 (HLA-B*5701) screening because of the risk of serious hypersensitivity reactions.

I'm in Iqaluit and want to order lamivudine. How can I find out whether you can ship to my address before I place the order?
Delivery availability for remote addresses can vary. Enter your complete Iqaluit address and postal code at checkout to check whether the destination can be accepted before you pay.
My lamivudine package arrived in Windsor after several very cold days. What should I look for before I use the tablets?
Check that the outer package and tablet packaging are intact, dry, and properly labelled, with no damaged seal or visibly altered tablets. Store the tablets at 25°C, with permitted excursions from 15°C to 30°C; if the package or tablets appear compromised, do not use them until the discrepancy is assessed.
I had hives from penicillin years ago. Does that mean I should avoid lamivudine?
A penicillin allergy does not by itself indicate a known cross-reaction with lamivudine. Lamivudine should be avoided only if there has been a previous allergy to lamivudine itself or to an ingredient in the particular tablet; check the received label for excipients if you have a known ingredient allergy.

I'm very pleased.
Discreet from the outside; the Epivir order didn't advertise its contents.
Dispatched quickly.
