What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Isentress Overview
Raltegravir is used with other HIV medications to help control HIV infection. It helps to decrease the amount of HIV in your body so your immune system can work better. This lowers your chance of getting HIV complications (such as new infections, cancer) and improves your quality of life. Raltegravir is known as an integrase inhibitor. It blocks the virus from growing and infecting more cells. Raltegravir is not a cure for HIV infection. To decrease your risk of spreading HIV disease to others, continue to take all HIV medications exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Use an effective barrier method (latex or polyurethane condoms/dental dams) during sexual activity as directed by your doctor. Do not share personal items (such as needles/syringes, toothbrushes, and razors) that may have contacted blood or other body fluids. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.
How to Use Isentress
Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start taking raltegravir and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Take Isentress by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once or twice daily. The Dosage of Isentress is based on your medical condition, response to treatment, and other medications you may be taking. Be sure to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products). The manufacturer directs to swallow Isentress whole. However, many similar drugs (immediate-release tablets) can be split/crushed. Follow your doctor's directions on how to take Isentress. Avoid using antacids that contain aluminum or magnesium while taking Isentress. These antacids can make raltegravir work less well. It is very important to continue taking Isentress (and other HIV medications) exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not skip any doses. Do not increase your dose or use Isentress more often or for longer than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and your risk of side effects will increase. Do not take less of Isentress than prescribed or stop taking it (or other HIV medicines) even for a short time unless directed to do so by your doctor. Doing so may cause the amount of virus to increase and/or make the infection more difficult to treat (resistant). For the best effect, take Isentress at evenly spaced times. To help you remember, take Isentress at the same time(s) every day. Do not switch between the film-coated tablet, the chewable tablet, or the powder packet for oral suspension forms of raltegravir without asking your doctor or pharmacist first.
Isentress Precautions
Before taking raltegravir, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. Isentress may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details. Before using Isentress, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history,liver disease (such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C), muscle disorders (such as rhabdomyolysis, myopathy), high blood levels of creatine kinase (high CK test results). Before having surgery, tell your doctor or dentist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products). During pregnancy, Isentress should be used only when clearly needed. Treatment can lower the risk of passing HIV infection to your baby, and raltegravir may be part of that treatment. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is unknown if Isentress passes into breast milk. Because breast milk can transmit HIV, do not breast-feed.
Isentress Misdose

Isentress Side Effects
Headache, nausea, and trouble sleeping may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that Isentress has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using Isentress do not have serious side effects. As your immune system gets stronger, it can begin to fight off infections you already had, possibly causing disease symptoms to come back. You could also have symptoms if your immune system becomes overactive. This reaction may happen at any time (soon after starting HIV treatment or many months later).

Changes in body fat may occur while you are taking Isentress (such as increased fat in the upper back and stomach areas, decreased fat in the arms and legs). The cause and long-term effects of these changes are unknown. Discuss the risks and benefits of treatment with your doctor, as well as the possible use of exercise to reduce this side effect.
