Generic approval of lamivudine and zidovudine tablets USP, 150 mg/300 mg

On May 15, 2012, FDA granted approval for a generic formulation of lamivudine and zidovudine tablets, 150 mg/300 mg, manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma Limited of Hyderabad, India, indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.

FDA has determined that the generic formulation is bioequivalent and, therefore, therapeutically equivalent to the reference listed drug, Combivir Tablets, a product of GlaxoSmithKline.

Approval of this generic formulation means that it may be marketed in the United States.
