Introduction to Letermovir Tablets
Uses of Medicine: Letermovir 240 mg/480 mg belongs to the pharmacological class of antiviral agents and is specifically classified under cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA terminase complex inhibitor. Patients, Healthcare Professionals, or Hospitals can buy Letermovir 240 mg/480 mg Tablets online from India through Indian Generic Medicines (a trusted Letermovir Supplier, Exporter, and Contract Manufacturer in India) for the management and treatment of:
- Prophylaxis of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and disease in adult and pediatric patients aged 6 months of age and older and weighing at least 6 kg who are CMV-seropositive recipients [R+] of an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).

Letermovir 240 mg/480 mg Tablet is an antiviral drug that prevents the Cytomegalovirus (CMV) from reproducing by blocking the CMV DNA terminase complex. It works fundamentally different from most antiviral medications which work on the DNA polymerase of the virus. Instead, Letermovir works by preventing the processing and packaging of viral DNA. This helps inhibit the propagation of the virus and helps reduce the infection’s burden throughout the body.
This medicine is particularly useful in preventing CMV disease in poorly immune system transplant recipients. Letermovir 240 mg/480 mg is able to reduce the chances of developing CMV-related complications because it impacts the infection’s replication capabilities at an earlier stage. Besides, the fact that Letermovir works on a different step of the viral replication cycle than most antiviral Letermovir tablets treatments enables the elimination of the cross-resistance that most CMV medications have.
