- emtracitabine
- lamivudine
- tenofovir
- zidovudine > azidothymidine

what NNRTI do you want to avoid in pregnancy
efavirenz
first line HIV Protease Inhibitors (PIs)
- atazanavir
- darunavir
adjunct PI drug always used with first line PIs
ritonavir
Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors (IIs)
raltegravir
CCR5 angtagonist Viral Fusion Inhibitor
maraviroc

MC initial HIV drug regimens
2 NRTIs +
- NNRTI
- PT
- INSTI
NRTIs that penetrate CNS
- zidovudine
- azidothymidine
NNRTI that penetrates CNS
nevirapine
MOA: NRTIs
modified versions of nucleosides > causes irreversible termination of DNA elongation > inhibits HIV DNA integration into host DNA
Purine NRTIs
- abacavir
- didanosine
- tenofovir
Pyrimidine NRTIs
- lamivudine
- emtricitabine
- zidovudine
- stavudine
host enzyme that adds initial phosphate group to NRTIs
cytosine kinase
AEs: NRTIs
- lactic acidosis syndrome
- lipoatrophy, lipodystrophy
s/s of lactic acidosis syndrome
nausea, vomiting, abd pain, wt loss, fatigue, myalgia, features of hepatic dysfunction
hallmark of NRTI toxicity
mitochondrial toxicity
mechanism of mitochodiral toxicity leading to lactic acidosis syndrome
mito DNA needed for ox phos proteins > def in proteins = impaired ox phos > anaerobic glucose metabolism > lactic acidosis
“not so bad” NRTIs
- tenofovir
- lamivudine
- emtricitabine
- abacavir
worst NRTIs
didanosin > stavudine > zidovudine
AE: tenofovir
nephrotoxicity
