Safely Buy Ziagen (Abacavir Sulphate) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Description

Ziagen Uses 

Ziagen contains abacavir sulfate, an antiretroviral agent that belongs to the NRTI nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. It is used to control HIV infections by decreasing the amount of the virus in the body for the immune system to work better. HIV human immunodeficiency virus is a sexually transmitted disease that interferes with the ability of the body to fight infections and illnesses, thus weakening the immune system.  

Abacavir inhibits the activity of an enzyme called reverse transcriptase needed by the virus or the conversion of RNA to DNA to prevent them from replicating themselves, leading to a decreased number of produced viruses. Ziagen lowers the chance of HIV complications such as new infections and cancer. It does not cure HIV, so barrier methods such as condoms are still recommended for sexual activities.
