Darunavir/cobicistat, sold under the brand names Prezcobix (US) and Rezolsta (EU), is a fixed-dose combination antiretroviral medication used to treat and prevent HIV/AIDS.[3] It contains darunavir and cobicistat.[3][5][6] Darunavir is an HIV protease inhibitor and cobicistat increases the effectiveness of darunavir by blocking its metabolism by the enzyme CYP3A.[6][3]

Darunavir/cobicistat was approved for use in the European Union in November 2014, and for use in the United States in January 2015.[4][7][8][3][9]
