What is Indinavir?
Indinavir is an antiviral medication. It is in a category of HIV medicines called protease inhibitors and works by preventing HIV from multiplying in your body.
This medicine is used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Indinavir is not, however, a cure for HIV or AIDS.
