NNRTI Key Features:

A

  • Food requirements:
    • With food: etravirine, rilpivirine
    • Without food: Efavirenz
    • Efavirenz CNS effects are decreased when given at bedtime on an empty stomach
    • Rilpivirine: QT prolongation, depression suicidality
85

86
Q

Rilpivirine:

A
  • 25 mg daily with meals

  • SEs: depressdive disorder, mood changes, insomnia
  • Notes: Higher rates of failure if viral load > 100,000 and or CD4 < 200
87
Q

Nevirapine

A
  • Boxed warning for hepatotoxicity
  • Serious skin reactions SJS/TEN
  • increased LFTs
  • Requires a lead in period of 14 days may reduce skin reactions
  • DO not initiate in women with CD4 count >250 or men >400 due to increased risk of hepatotoxicity

  • Major sustrate of 3A4 2C9, and 2C19
    • Avoid clopidogrel, carbamazepine, filbanserin, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifampin, simprevir, Zepatier
      *
91
Q

Rilpivirine DIs

A
  • Contraindicated with strong 3A4 inducers
    • Carbamazepine, oxcarb, phenobarbital, rifampin, phenytoin, systemic dexamethasone > 1 dose and PPIs
  • Caution with other acid suppressants separate H2RAs and Antacids
92
Q

Methadone and NNRTIs

and Hormonal Contraceptives

A
  • Methadone levels can be decreased by efavirenz and nevirapine, possible methadone withdrawal
  • Efavirenz anf Nivirapine can also decrease efficacy of hormonal contraceptives
93
Q

What Protease Inhibitors are used as boosters in HIV?

A
  • Ritonavir
  • Cobicistat
94
Q

Key Features of PIs 11

A
  1. Generic names end in navir
  2. Primarily CYP450 drug interaction
  3. No renal dosage adjustment needed but many combos have dose adjustments
  4. Hepatoxicity (highest risk with tipranavir)
  5. Taken with a protease booster (ritonavir or cobicistat) to increase PI levels
  6. Metabolic abnormalities such as hyperlipidemia, lipohypertrophy (atazanavir darunavir < than other PIs), insulin resistance/hyperglycemia (highest risk with indinavir, lopinavir/ritonavir)
  7. Increased CVD risk (lowest with atazanavir, darunavir)
  8. GI upset take with food to decrease exceptions (fosamprenavir and lopinavir/ritonavir)
  9. Bleeding events (in pts with haemophilia)
  10. ECG changes (changes saquinavir/ritonavir, lipinavir/ritonavir and atazanavir/ritonavir)
  11. Rash including SJS/TEN
95
