Common questions about Rescriptor (delavirdine)

Rescriptor (delavirdine) is a HIV ART (antiretroviral therapy) medication that stops the HIV virus from infecting your cells. It's in a subclass called "NNRTI," similar to HIV ARTs like Sustiva or Edurant, which are more commonly used.

No, there are no brand or generic versions available in the U.S.

The FDA reported that the manufacturer decided to stop making Rescriptor (delavirdine) for business reasons, not safety. It could be that the demand for the medication was too low after newer HIV ARTs became available.
