Regular monitoring may be required to assess the body's response to the medication. Store the tablets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

What does Abacavir interact with?

Abacavir may interact with other medications, including certain antiretrovirals, antibiotics, and antifungal drugs. Alcohol consumption should be avoided as it may exacerbate side effects. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
