About Ritonavir
Therapeutic Class: Antiretroviral – HIV Protease Inhibitor
Indication: Used in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
Mechanism of Action: Ritonavir inhibits the HIV protease enzyme, preventing viral replication. Additionally, it acts as a pharmacokinetic enhancer (booster) by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes, thereby increasing the bioavailability of other protease inhibitors.

Manufacturing Process for Ritonavir
1. Pre-formulation Studies
Our formulation development team conducts thorough pre-formulation analysis, including compatibility studies, solubility profiles, and excipient selection, to optimize the bioavailability of Ritonavir.
2. Granulation and Blending
Using fluid bed granulation or high-shear mixing, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is uniformly blended with excipients to ensure dose uniformity.
3. Compression or Encapsulation
The blend is compressed into tablets using high-speed rotary machines or encapsulated into hard/soft gelatin capsules under controlled humidity and temperature.
4. Coating and Polishing
If required, tablets are film-coated to improve stability, taste-masking, and aesthetic appeal. Soft gel capsules undergo polishing and visual inspection.
5. Packaging
Final products are packed in blister packs, strip packs, bottles, or custom configurations based on market requirements. All packaging materials used are validated and tested for compatibility.
