What is enfuvirtide?

Enfuvirtide powder is an antiviral medication that prevents human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from infecting healthy cells in your body.

Enfuvirtide is used together with other medications to treat HIV, the virus that can cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Enfuvirtide is not a cure for HIV or AIDS.

Enfuvirtide may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Important Information
Some people using enfuvirtide have developed pneumonia. It is not clear whether enfuvirtide is the cause of pneumonia, but using enfuvirtide may increase your risk. You may also be more likely to have pneumonia if you smoke, if you've ever had lung disease, or if you have a history of intravenous (IV) drug use.

Call your doctor if you have a fever, chills, cough with mucus, chest pain, of shortness of breath.

Before taking this medicine
You should not use enfuvirtide if you are allergic to it.

Tell your doctor if you have ever had:

breathing problems; or
a bleeding or blood clotting disorder such as hemophilia.
Having HIV makes it easier for you to get other infections. Some people using enfuvirtide have developed pneumonia. It is not clear whether enfuvirtide is the cause of pneumonia, but using this medicine may increase your risk. You may also be more likely to have pneumonia if you smoke, if you've ever had lung disease, or if you have a history of intravenous (IV) drug use.

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, and use your medications properly to control your infection. HIV can be passed to your baby if the virus is not controlled during pregnancy. Your name may be listed on a registry to track any effects of antiviral medicine on the baby.

Women with HIV or AIDS should not breast feed a baby. Even if your baby is born without HIV, the virus may be passed to the baby in your breast milk.
