Taking it

Maraviroc is available as a film-coated tablet in strengths of 150 and 300mg. It has been approved for use in combination with other antiretrovirals. Standard dosing for maraviroc is 300mg twice daily; however, the dose is dependent on other drugs being taken as part of an ART regimen.

Two twice-daily doses of maraviroc have been approved:

  • 150mg dose when used with protease inhibitors (with the exception of tipranavir/ritonavir),
  • 300mg dose when combined with tipranavir/ritonavir, efavirenz, nevirapine, enfuvirtide, and other drugs that are not strong CYP3A inhibitors or inducers.

Maraviroc can be taken with or without food.
