DOVATO is indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in adults and adolescents above 12 years of age weighing at least 40kg, with no known or suspected resistance to the integrase inhibitor class, or lamivudine.
One tablet, once a day[1]
Can be taken with or without food[1]
No time-of-day restrictions[1]
PACKAGING MADE FOR LIVING: DOVATO IS NOW AVAILABLE IN A PRACTICAL AND CONVENIENT BLISTER PACK
People living with HIV experiencing HIV-related stigma are 32% less likely to adhere to antiretroviral therapy vs. those not reporting stigma (n=4,053).[§,9,10]
The DOVATO blister pack aims to reduce attention to the person’s medication. Together with indicators for the days of the week, this could help people living with HIV keep their medication on track.
Each box of DOVATO contains 30 tablets, packaged into 5 blister pack cards, which are 79 mm x 55 mm x 6.7 mm.
Discreet
It’s small - a smaller surface area than a credit card, meaning it can easily fit into your patient’s pocket.
Practical
Helps keep treatment routine on track with indicators for days of the week.
Convenient
With a perforated line, the pack can be torn to make it even smaller, adding more convenience for those weekends away.
