17
Q

adverse effects of TDF

A

nephropathy, fanconi syndrome, osteomalacia, lactic acidosis

18
Q

treatment in renal and bone disease

A

no preference btwn TDF and entecavir. if TDF associated bone/renal disease–> TAF.

19
Q

TAF metabolism?

A

p-gp substrate, inducers contraindicated

20
Q

TAF, CrCL <15?

A

not recommended

21
Q

TAF dose/food

A

25 mg daily with food

22
Q

TAF drug interaction with carbamazepine

A

carbamazepine inducer: decreases TAF exposure by half

23
Q

TAF drug interaction with cobicistat

A

inhibitor: increases TAF exposure

24
Q

what other drugs interact with TAF

A

harvoni and epclusa

25
Q

safety in HBV treatment with nucleos(t)ide analogues

A

low AE profile, safe in immunocompromised, all stages of liver disease, indefinite treatment duration, resistance

26
Q

safety in HBV treatment with interferons

A

many AE, contraindications, limited treatment duration, no resistance

27
Q

phases of chronic hepatitis b infection

A

immune tolerant, immune active, inactive CHB, immune reactivation

28
Q

during which phases of CHB is HBV DNA elevated?

A

immune tolerant, immune active, reactivation

29
Q

during which phases of CHB is ALT elevated?

A

immune active, reactivation

30
Q

during which phase of CHB is there liver injury?

A

immune active

31
Q

during which phase of CHB is there necroinflammation and fibrosis?

A

immune reactivation

32
Q

when to treat for immune active CHB

A

generally do. ALT >2x ULN, liver injury, HBeAg- 2000, HBeAg +20,000

33
Q

when to treat for immune tolerant CHB

A

generally don’t, if everything looks good. monitor.

34
Q

when to treat after HBeAg seroconversion

A

we want the HB envelope antigen (HBeAg) to be negative. emergence of anti-Hbe (envelope). but don’t stop when it emerges, generally consolidate for 12 months with persistent normal ALT, negative HBV DNA, monitor q3m post cessation.

35
Q

when to treat after HBeAg seroconversion with cirrhosis?

A

kind of a grey area: things to balance– cost, adverse effects, resistance. relapse, decompensation, HCC.. just realize it is difficult to decide

36
Q

if people don’t convert?

A

indefinite antiviral therapy

37
Q

role for duel therapy?

A

breakthrough on monotherapy.

38
Q

treatment options for cirrhosis?

A

interferon is NOT an option. tenofovir and entecavir preferred.

39
Q

HBV for pregnancy?

A

HBV DNA >200,000. start at 28-32 weeks gestation: TDF, lamivudine, telbivudine, breastfeeding not contraindicated.

40
Q

HBV treat for children?

A

we should if they have immune active: elevated ALT, HBV DNA.

41
Q

which HBV drugs for children >2 (not rlly on test)

A

lamivudine, entecavir, TDF

42
Q

which HBV drugs for children >12 (not rlly on test)

A

adefovir, TAF
