GAVIR 250

Gavir 250mg Injection contains the potent active ingredient Ganciclovir. This medication is specifically used to both treat and prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. It is effectively employed to treat existing CMV infections in AIDS patients, and it also serves a crucial role in preventing CMV infections in individuals who have received an organ transplant from someone infected with this particular virus. Cytomegalovirus can potentially affect anyone, but it is primarily observed in people with a weakened immune system. CMV has the capacity to affect any part of the body, including the retina at the back of the eye, which can lead to significant eye problems.

Before taking Gavir 250mg Injection, it is essential to tell your doctor if you have any pre-existing kidney disorders, allergic conditions, or if you are currently undergoing radiotherapy or hemodialysis. It is critically important to use effective birth control throughout the entire duration of the treatment and for at least 30 days after the last dose if you are a woman, or for at least 90 days after the last dose if you are a man. Additionally, ensure you inform your physician of all the medicines you are currently taking, including any supplements and herbal medicines, before you start treatment with this medication. This injection should be avoided in individuals with pre-existing severe bone marrow suppression or those who already have low blood cell counts.
