19
Q

Ziagen (abacavir) NRTI

A

hypersensitivity 3-5% of people w/ HLA-B5701 allele, BID, no food effects, use cautiously in CV risk patients

20
Q

NNRTI

A

MOA: bind reverse transcriptase (binding site near NRTI site)/(do not require phosphorylation), not effective against HIV-2, base-line genotype testing b/c resistance (2-8%), Disadvant- greater risk of resistance, can have lots of DDI b/c METABOLIZED BY CYP450

21
Q

Sustiva (efavirenz) NNRTI

A

not in first trimester!!, CNS EFFECTS mostly which dimisnishes w/ continued tx, SKIN RASH (28%), disadvantages: neural tube defects, neuropsychiatric effects (not w/ high fat meal)

22
Q

Edurant (rilpivirine) NNRTI

A

depressive disorders, rash, hyper-lipidemia, must have acidic pH, NO PPI,

23
Q

Protease Inhibitors

A

HIV 1&2, prevent processing of viral proteins, LOTS OF METABOLIC COMPLICATIONS (INCREASED TG AND LDL, INSULIN RESISTANCE), fat redistribution worst w/ this group!!, CYP3A4 inhibitors, no phosphorylation needed

24
Q

Norvir (ritonavir) PI

A

will increase plasma levels of other PI’s, ADE: GI disturbances, recommended when possible w/ all PI’s

25
Q

Reyataz (atazanavir) PI

A

Atazanavir, NO EFFECTS ON LIPIDS, FAT REDISTRIBUTION OR METABOLIC SYNDROME, absorption depends low gastric pH and some food, NO MI OR STROKE RISK, PPI contraindicated!!, to be boosted w/ ritonavir, disad: (HYPEBILIRUBINEMIA)

26
Q

Prezista (darunavir) PI

A

Darunavir, dyslipidemia, liver toxicity, boosted w/ ritonavir, CAN BE GIVEN W/ PPI !!!!, MANY DDI, skin rash, food requirements, watch pt’s w/ sulfa allergy

27
Q

Kaletra (lopinavir) PI

A

Lopinavir, SHORT TERM USE IN PREGNANCY, elevated TG and cholesterol, BID ideal, High risk of MI

28
Q

Integrase Inhibitors

A

block enzyme responsible for replication of HIV 1&2, Raltegravir, elvitegravir, dolutegravir

29
Q

CCR-5

A

bind chemokine co-receptor on CD4 cells, prevent HIV entry, Maraviroc

30
Q

Isentress (raltegravir)

Integrase Inhib.

A

less DDI than PI’s or NNRTI regimens!!, BID, no food effect, increased CPK = increased rhabdomyolysis

31
Q

Stribild (elvitegravir)

Integrase Inhib.

A

CrCl>70ml/min, cobicistat to boost elvitegravir, new onset or worsening renal impairment, food requirement, proximal renal tubulopathy

32
Q

Tivicay (dolutegravir)

Integrase Inhib.

A

avoid antacids, qd-bid dosing

33
Q

Selzentry (maraviroc)

CCR-5

A

used for R5-HIV, test w/ tropism assay before tx, compared to efavirenz it has less ADE, DDI

34
Q

Hep-B

A

we can only suppress NOT treat, 1st line tx: Pegylated interferon alpha-2a, entecavir, tenofovir (KNOW ALL 3!)

35
Q

Hep-C

A

most common chronic blood-borne infection in US, 5x’s more common than HIV,

36
Q

Hep-C

A

most common chronic blood-borne infection in US, 5x’s more common than HIV

37
Q

A

two forms of birth control for men and women, SUN SENSITIVITY, not for use w/ sulfa aller.

38
Q

A

Sovaldi (sofosbuvir)- two forms of BC to be on, life threatening bradycardia

39
Q

NS5A replication complex inhibitors

A

Ledipasvir or ombitasvir,

40
Q

Interferon and Pegylated Alfa

A

moa: inhibits viral penetration, translation, and transcription, (pegylated means we give it less often), long half life (up to 160 hrs), ADE: flu like symptoms (30%), Black Box Warnings

A

inhibits replication of DNA and RNA viruses, DON’T USE in pregnancy, large spectrum of activity (HIV, RSV, Influenza A and B)

Q

Oseltamivir (tamiflu) and Zanamivir (ralenza)- as an inhaler

A

neuraminadase inhibitor, for influenza A and B, inhibit release of progeny to new host cells when administerd 36-48 hours after onset of sx, (decrease sx and will decrease overall conditions by 1-2 days)
