Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
Nevirapine, Efavirenz
Protease Inhibiors
Ritonavir, Indinavir sulfate, Nelfinavir mesylate, Lopinavir/Ritonavir, Atanavir sulfate
NRTI’s
- inhibit HIV reverse transcriptase
2. generally do not interact with other drugs or meals
Didanosine
NRTI that interacts with other drugs
Zidovudine-AZT
- NRTI (tx HIV)
- synthetic dideoxynucleoside (pyrimadine) antiviral
- thymidine analogue. can’t form phosphodiester linkages. lacks 3’ hydroxyl. leads to chain termination
- converted intracellularly to active triphosphate
- Plasma protein bound
- SE: anemia, neutropenia, bone marrow tox, granulocytopenia, CNS, GI
- CONTRAINDICATIONS: compromised bone marrow fxn
Combivir
lamivudine + zidovudine
Trizivir
lamivudine + zidovudine + abacavir
Drug that you do NOT give with Zidovudine
Stavudine. (antagonism)
Didanosine
- NTRI (tx HIV)
- Dideoxynucleoside (purine)
- inhibitor of reverse transcriptase by COMPETING with dATP for active site of enzyme
- converted to active triphosphate in cell
- lacks 3’ hydroxyl group. leads to chain termination
- absorption depends on food and pH
- SE: peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis, GI
Zerit
DIdanosine + Zidovudine (or stavudine)
Lamivudine
- NTRI (tx HIV)
- carbon of ribose is replaced by sulfur
- less potent but LESS TOXIC
- competitive inhibition of reverse transcriptase
- ACTIVE AGAINST HEPATITIS B (flare ups if stop drug)
- resistance is rapidly developed (avoid monotherapy)
Epivir
Lamivudine
Epzicom
Abacavir + Lamivudine
Abacavir
- NRTI (tx HIV)
2. SE: SEVERE HSN RXN (rash, fever, malaise) + Resp and GI sx
Ziagen
Abacavir
Emtricitabine
- NRTI (tx HIV)
- derivative of Lamivudine
- BEST TOLERATED NRTI)
- SE: hyperpigmentation of palms and soles
- active against HEPATITIS B (can cause flare ups with drug withdrawl)
Emtriva
Emtricitabine
Truvada
fixed dose Emtricitabine + tenofovir
Atripla
efavirenz + tenofovir + emtricitabine
Tenofovir disoproxil
- NTRI (nucleotide)
- pro-drug of tenofovir
- effective against resistant HIV strains
- active against HEPATITIS B (flare up if discontinued)
- SE: N/V/D, renal tox
Nucleotides
phosphorylated nucleosides
Viread
tenofovir disoproxil
