What is Cabenuva? 

Cabenuva is an injectable medication that is administered by a healthcare provider. It is FDA-approved as a complete regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and adolescents 12 years and older who weigh at least 77 pounds to replace the current medication regimen in appropriate situations as determined by the doctor. 

This medication kit contains two medications: cabotegravir, which is an HIV integrase inhibitor, and rilpivirine, which is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, or NNRTI. The two medications work together to decrease the amount of HIV in the blood. They do not cure HIV but may decrease your chance of developing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and HIV-related conditions like serious infections or cancer. These medications are used along with lifestyle changes and safer sex.

How long do you have to take Cabenuva?

Before starting Cabenuva, you may take daily pills by mouth for one month to see how your body reacts. Cabenuva is administered by your healthcare provider as two injections, one injection into the muscle of each side of your buttocks. Depending on the treatment plan, you will receive an injection either every month—or every other month (after the first two injections, which are one month apart). Cabenuva is formulated as a long-acting medication that helps you stay undetectable (where the amount of HIV in the blood cannot be measured by a lab test) and not have to take daily medication. To stay undetectable, you must keep your appointments and receive your injections on schedule. You will keep receiving Cabenuva injections unless your healthcare provider advises another type of treatment. If you stop taking Cabenuva, you will have to take other medications to treat HIV-1 infection and lower the chance of developing resistance.
