25
Q

What 2 drugs enhance oral absorption of tenofovir

A

Disoproxil and alafenamide

26
Q

AEs of tenofovir

A

Generally well tolerated

Flatulence

27
Q

MOA of NN (non-nucleoside)RTIs

A

Binds directly to HIV reverse transcriptase in site distant from active site

Binding causes conformational change in enzyme and leads to reduced activity

(Noncompetitive inhibitors)

28
Q

Why is monotherapy with NNRTIs not preferred?

A

Resistance can rapidly develop

29
Q

How are NNRTIs metabolized

A

By CYP450, so lots of drug interactions

30
Q

What are the 3 first generation NNRTIs

A

Delavirdine

Efavirenz

Nevirapine

31
Q

What are the 2 second generation NNRTIs

A

Etravirine

Rilpivirine

32
Q

AEs of delaviridine

A

Skin rash

Increased aminotransferase levels

33
Q

How is delavirdine metabolized

A

Extensively by CYP3A & CYP2D6

34
Q

What are the benefits of efavirenz

A

Can be given once daily due to increased half life

Typically given in a combo pill of tenofovir and emtricitabine for a once daily pill

35
Q

What is efavirenz metabolized by

A

CYP3A4 & CYP2B6

36
Q

AEs of efavirenz

A

CNS: dizziness, drowsiness, insomnia, NIGHTMARES, HA

37
Q

What drug is used to prevent transmission of HIV from mother to child

A

Q

What is nevirapine metabolized by

A

Rash which can be dose limiting

Liver toxicity

40
Q

What drug was designed to overcome HIV resistance to first generation NNRTIs

A

Q

Etravirine is an inducer and inhibitor of which enzymes

42
Q

AEs of rilpivirine

A

Rash, DEPRESSION, headache, insomnia, increased serum aminotransferases

High doses associated with QT prolongation **

43
Q

MOA of INSTIs

A

Integrase strand transfer inhibitors

Binds HIV integrase and inhibits the strand transfer and prevents ligation of reverse-transcribed HIV DNA into the chromosomes of the host cell

44
Q

What are the most common AEs in INSTIs

A

HA and GI effects

45
Q

What are the 3 INSTIs

A
