Kroger Specialty Pharmacy is Now Dispensing CABENUVA

Posted on March 23, 2021 | Garden Grove, CA

ViiV Healthcare has selected Kroger Specialty Pharmacy as one of the Network Specialty Pharmacies to dispense CABENUVA for treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults.

Kroger Specialty Pharmacy is proud to announce it is now dispensing CABENUVA (cabotegravir extended-release injectable suspension; rilpivirine extended-release injectable suspension) for treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults to replace the current antiretroviral regimen in those who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL), on a stable antiretroviral regimen with no history of treatment failure and with no known or suspected resistance to either cabotegravir or rilpivirine.

John King, SVP of Sales & Business Development for Kroger Specialty Pharmacy, recently shared what access to CABENUVA means for the HIV community. “Helping people live healthier lives is our mission at Kroger Specialty Pharmacy, and having the ability to support the HIV community with a complete portfolio of clinical offerings plays an important role in that mission. We are proud to add CABENUVA to our treatment options for patients living with this chronic disease.”


At Kroger Specialty Pharmacy our clinical and care teams have extensive experience with the treatment challenges that can arise when dealing with HIV and Hep C. We are passionate about simplifying the enrollment process for our patients by providing comprehensive financial services and personalized patient care support.
