Review of interactions between ARVs and HIV single tablet regimens.

We have completed a review of the interactions between ARVs and the single tablet regimens (STRs) used to treat HIV. Many (but not all) of the product labels for the STRs state that the STR should not be coadministered with other ARVs and for this reason such interactions were coded as red on the interaction checker.

For the time being, only summaries of the interactions are available. We will add full references when American and/or European product labels are available (in line wit...

New Prescribing Resource – interactions with integrase inhibitors and cations

Integrase inhibitors can bind to polyvalent cations resulting in potentially clinically significant drug interactions with coadministered cation-containing antacids and other supplements/multivitamins. Management of such interactions often requires the temporal separation of the integrase inhibitor from the cation-containing product.

We have produced a new Prescribing Resource which give...

New names and new comedications

We have renamed some of the comedications in the “Herbal/Supplements/Vitamins” class to make it clearer if possible interactions are due to the presence of multivitamins or to the comedication itself. Existing interactions have been revised to refer to when the comedication is given in a multivitamin preparation and new interactions have been added for when the comedication is given alone. The f...
