Fuzeon

Waarvoor het wordt gebruikt

Fuzeon is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral medicinal products for the treatment of HIV-1-infected patients who have received treatment with and failed on regimens containing at least one medicinal product from each of the following antiretroviral classes: protease inhibitors, non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors and nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors, or who have intolerance to previous antiretroviral regimens. In deciding on a new regimen for patients who have failed an antiretroviral regimen, careful consideration should be given to the treatment history of the individual patient and the patterns of mutations associated with different medicinal products. Where available, resistance testing may be appropriate.
