How Taficita Works

Taficita combines two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs): Emtricitabine and Tenofovir Alafenamide. These medications work by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, which is essential for the replication of HIV. By suppressing viral replication, Taficita helps to reduce the amount of HIV in the blood, thereby improving immune function and reducing the risk of progression to AIDS.
