A

CNS toxicity
Lipid abnormalities
–> Less so than EFV

150
Q

Why is darunavir recommended over atazanavir?

A

Darunavir is active against PI resistant viral strains

151
Q

SE of atazanavir?

A

Elevated indirect bilirubin like Gilbert’s syndrome which may lead to jaundice. NO alk or AST/ALT elevation
Renal stones

152
Q

Which HIV medications will cause creatinine bump due to impaired excretion of creatinine?

A

Bictegravir
Dolutegravir
Cobicistat

153
Q

Which integrase inhibitors have a high barrier to resistance? [2]

A

Bictegravir

Dolutegravir

154
Q

NOTE

A

Most NNRTIs [EFV, ETR, RPV] are P450 induces causing levels of other drugs to fall.
–> DOR is an exception.

155
Q

Medications to NNRTIs will likely effect, causing decreased levels?

A
  1. Rifampin
  2. Ketoconazole/itraconazole
  3. Seizure medications
  4. Benzos
  5. PIs
  6. Maraviroc
156
Q

How do PI’s effect the cytochrome system?

A

They are INHIBITORS
Ritonavir is the most potent inhibitor ever described
This will increase levels of other drugs [Same list as NNRTIs]

157
Q

What entire HIV medication drug class CANNOT be used with rifampin?

A

PI

158
Q

HIV medications that are teratogens?

A

Dolutegravir –> Neural tube defects

159
Q

Which HIV drug class has been a/w increased cardiac events?

A

PI except atazanavir

160
Q

If you are on a 3 drug regimen and HIV is suppressed what 2 drug regimens may be effective to switch to?

A

DTG+RPV
Boosted PI [ATV, DRV, LPV] + 3TC or FTC
–> If you DROP one of the meds that is treating HBV infection this will cause flair

161
Q

HIV RNA copies can increase, when does this become concerning?

A

RNA >200.

If <200 - even if it is increased - repeat RNA next visit.

162
Q

What viral load level is concerning for drug resistance?

A

VL persistently >200
VL >500
–> Perform resistance testing
–> Change therapy

163
Q

What is HIV therapy immunologic failure?

A

This is when VL is suppressed but CD4 counts are not increasing.

164
Q

What coinfections may lead to HIV therapy immunologic failure?

A

HCV

HTLV-1

165
Q

Mgmt of immunologic failure?

A

Reassurance

If there is VL suppression ART is working, no need to change treatment.

166
Q

How much HIV copies are needed to undergo genotyping for resistance?

A

> 1000 copies

167
Q

What is the most common mutation in transmitted drug resistance?

A

K103N

NNRTI resistance
