Q

Efavirenz

A

Neuropsychiatric AE: vivid dreams, insomnia, hallucinations, dizziness, difficult concentrating, suicidal ideation
Teratogenic
Hepatotoxicity
Rash - maculopapular to SJS and TEN

Not used as much anymore

22
Q

Efavirenz drug interactions

A

CYP3A4 substrates (carbamazepine, posaconazole)

23
Q

Rilpivirine general

A

Well tolerated (fewer AE than efavirenz) but not as potent

More failures when Vl > 100,000 or CD4+ <200

24
Q

Rilpivirine drug interactions + other

A

Plasma concentrations influenced by various CYP enzymes - protease inhibitors and azole antifungals increase plasma RPV levels

CI with strong CYP3A4 inducers

Needs ACIDIC environment for absorption (PPI are CI; can do H2 receptor antagonist at least 12 hours before)

25
Q

Odefesy

A

TAF + emtricitabine + rilpivirine

26
Q

Juluca

A

Rilpivirine + dolutegravir

27
Q

Cabenuva

A

Rilpivirine + cabotegravir

28
Q

Protease inhibitors MOA

A

Inhibition of HIV protease enzyme, preventing formation and release of mature virons

High barrier to resistance, potent viral efficacy

Need pharmacokinetic booster

29
Q

Third generation PI

A

Atazanavir
Darunavir

As go from first –> 3rd, decrease in AE: lipodystrophy, N/V, diarrhea, cholesterolemia, insulin resistance

30
Q

Protease Inhibitors AE

A

Most common with 1st gen (ritonavir, indinavir, saquinavir, nelfinavir)

GI intolerance: N/V, diarrhea
Lipodystrophy: long term complications resulting from metabolic and morphologic abnormalities (fat atrophy and deposition)
Lipid abnormalities (hypertriglyceridemia, cholesterolemia, lipoaccumulation - lopinvair/ritonavir highest risk)
31
Q

Protease inhibitors class effects

A

Cardiovascular risk: dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction

Major drug interactions due to booster (CYP3A4, CYP2D6)

Food effects bioavailability

32
Q

boosted protease inhibitor regimens

A

addition of booster –> inhibition of CYP34A –> reduced metabolism of PI –> lower dosing frequency/better blood concentrations

boosters: ritonavir or cobicistat

33
Q

Atazanavir

A

Don’t use with hepatic impairment
take with food
needs acidic environment
CI with CYP34A

usually active in patients who have failed other PI

34
Q

Atazanavir adverse effects

A

N/V/D
hyperbilirubinemia +/- jaundice or scleral icterus
nephrolithiasis + cholelithiasis
lower cardio risk vs other PI

35
Q

Darunavir

A

Can be considered alternative first line treatment in some treatment naive

AE: well tolerated, favorable lipid profile compared to other PI, possible higher CVD risk vs atazanavir

drug-drug: CYP34A

36
Q

Symtuza

A

darunavir-cobicistat-TAF-emtricitabine

37
Q

Prezcobix

A

found to be inferior to dolutegravair

43
Q

elvitegravir

A

can only get in combo pills: stribild, genvoya
some nausea, diarrhea

MAJOR 34A inhibitor
resistance may infer cross resistance w/ raltegravir

44
Q

Dolutegravir

A

Preferred INSTI

AE: decreases tubular secretion of creatinine, weight gain, neuropsychiatric effects (depression, anxiety, sleep disturbances), neural tube defects?

45

extended release injectable (apretude) - q8 week injection for PrEP

47
Q

entry inhibitors

A

Subclasses
CD4 post-attachment inhibitor
CCR5 coreceptor antagonist
Fusion inhibitors

48
Q

Fusion inhibitors

A

Enfuviritide (Fuzeon) - binds to gp41 and prevents attachment of HIV virus to T-cell

AE: injection site reactions, sclerotic lesions

49
Q

monitoring ART

A

measure HIV RNA (viral load): prior to start, 4-6 weeks after initiation, every 1-2 months, every 3-6 months, etc.. as viral load decreases
GOAL: undetectable at 16-24 weeks.

measuure CD4 count: monitor every 3-6 months
GOAL: increase by 50-150 in 1st year

50

PEP

A

3 drug regimen preferred

- Truvada + Isentress or Tivicay (nonoccupational)
Reasonable to substitute TAF or other INSTI

Duration: 4 weeks
