Viropil Tablet contains three active ingredients that work together to inhibit key steps in the HIV replication cycle:

• Dolutegravir (50 mg): This component binds to the active site of the HIV integrase and blocks the strand transfer step of retroviral DNA integration, a vital step in the HIV replication cycle.

• Lamivudine (300 mg): Lamivudine is a synthetic nucleoside analogue that inhibits HIV reverse transcriptase after its intracellular transformation into its active 5'-triphosphate metabolite. This results in the termination of the DNA chain.

• Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (300 mg): This component is an acyclic nucleoside phosphonate diester analogue of adenosine monophosphate. After undergoing diester hydrolysis and phosphorylation, it inhibits the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase by competing with the natural substrate deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate and causing DNA chain termination after incorporation into DNA.
