Maraviroc, sold under the brand names Selzentry and Celsentri, is an antiretroviral medication used to treat and prevent HIV/AIDS. It is generally only recommended in cases which have CCR5 tropism and is not usually an initial treatment. It is taken by mouth.

Common side effects include cough, fever, rash, and upper respiratory tract infection. Other side effects may include autoimmune disorders, allergic reactions, osteonecrosis, and liver problems. Use is not typically recommended in pregnancy. It should not be used in people with significant kidney problems. It is in the CCR5 receptor antagonist and works by preventing HIV from entering cells.

Maraviroc was approved for medical use in the United States and Europe in 2007. In the United Kingdom it costs the NHS about £520 per month as of 2021. This amount in the United States costs about 1,500 USD.
