It works by slowing the spread of HIV in the body. Tipranavir does not cure HIV infection and may not prevent you from developing HIV-related illnesses. Tipranavir does not prevent you from spreading HIV to other people.

How should this medicine be used?

Tipranavir comes as a capsule to take by mouth. It is usually taken with food and with ritonavir twice a day. Take tipranavir and ritonavir at around the same times every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take tipranavir exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.

Do not take tipranavir without ritonavir.
