It is a co-formulation of the marketed HIV drugs Tivicay (dolutegravir; ViiV Healthcare) and Epzicom ([abacavir + lamivudine]; ViiV Healthcare), which is known as Kivexa outside the US. Tivicay is an integrase inhibitor that blocks the insertion of the viral genome into the host genome, and Epzicom is a fixed-dose combination nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor that prevents viral RNA replication.
Tybost (cobicistat; Gilead) is a boosting agent to be used in combination with protease inhibitors (PIs) as part of treatment regimens for HIV-1 infection.
