Hepatitis B and HIV coinfection, hepatitis B exacerbation

Lamivudine; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is not indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection; however, both the lamivudine and tenofovir components are active against the hepatitis B virus. Perform hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening in any patient who presents with HIV infection to assure appropriate treatment. Patients with hepatitis B and HIV coinfection should be started on a fully suppressive antiretroviral (ARV) regimen with activity against both viruses (regardless of CD4 counts and HBV DNA concentrations). HIV treatment guidelines recommend these patients receive an ARV regimen that contains a dual NRTI backbone of tenofovir alafenamide or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with either emtricitabine or lamivudine. If tenofovir cannot be used, entecavir should be used in combination with a fully suppressive ARV regimen (note: entecavir should not be considered part of the ARV regimen). Avoid using single-drug therapy to treat HBV (i.e., lamivudine, emtricitabine, tenofovir, or entecavir as the only active agent) as this may result in HIV resistant strains. Further, HBV treatment regimens that include adefovir or telbivudine should also be avoided, as these regimens are associated with a higher incidence of toxicities and increased rates of HBV treatment failure. Most coinfected patients should continue treatment indefinitely with the goal of maximal HIV suppression and prevention of HBV relapse. Patients with coexisting HBV and HIV infections who discontinue lamivudine or tenofovir may experience severe acute hepatitis B exacerbation with some cases resulting in hepatic decompensation and hepatic failure. Therefore, close monitoring of transaminase concentrations (every 6 weeks for the first 3 months, and every 3 to 6 months thereafter) is recommended in coinfected patients who discontinue NRTI therapy. If appropriate, resumption of anti-hepatitis B treatment may be required, especially in patients with advanced liver disease or cirrhosis, since posttreatment exacerbation of hepatitis may lead to hepatic decompensation and liver failure. For patients who refuse a fully suppressive ARV regimen, but still require treatment for HBV, consider 48 weeks of peginterferon alfa; do not administer HIV-active medications in the absence of a fully suppressive ARV regimen. Instruct patients to avoid consuming alcohol, and offer vaccinations against hepatitis A and hepatitis B as appropriate. [46638] [34362] [62892]

Hemodialysis
Hemodialysis removes tenofovir from the blood, but is not expected to significantly remove lamivudine. Avoid use in patient with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis.

Abrocitinib: (Moderate) Coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with abrocitinib may result in increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir, leading to an increase in tenofovir-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a P-gp substrate and abrocitinib is a P-gp inhibitor.
Acalabrutinib: (Moderate) Coadministration of acalabrutinib and tenofovir disoproxil fumerate may increase may increase the absorption and plasma concentration of tenofovir disoproxil fumerate. Monitor patients for tenofovir-related adverse reactions and discontinue use in patients who experience an adverse reaction. Acalabrutinib is an inhibitor of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporter in vitro; it may inhibit intestinal BCRP. Tenofovir disoproxil fumerate is a BCRP substrate.
Acetaminophen; Aspirin, ASA; Caffeine: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Acetaminophen; Aspirin: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Acetaminophen; Aspirin; Diphenhydramine: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Acetaminophen; Ibuprofen: (Moderate) Avoid administering tenofovir, PMPA concurrently with or recently after a nephrotoxic agent, such as high-dose or multiple nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Cases of acute renal failure, some requiring hospitalization and renal replacement therapy, have been reported after high-dose or multiple NSAIDs were initiated in patients who appeared stable on tenofovir. Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Acyclovir: (Moderate) Monitor for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus if tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is administered in combination with nephrotoxic agents, such as acyclovir. Tenofovir is primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Concurrent administration with drugs that decrease renal function may increase concentrations of tenofovir. In addition, use with drugs that are also eliminated by active tubular secretion may increase concentrations of the co-administered drug. Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; a majority of the cases occurred in patients who had underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir containing products should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus, and urine glucose and protein.
Adagrasib: (Moderate) Coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with adagrasib may result in increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir, leading to an increase in tenofovir-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a P-gp substrate and adagrasib is a P-gp inhibitor.
Adefovir: (Major) Avoid coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with adefovir. Both tenofovir and adefovir are primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Concurrent administration may increase concentrations of both drugs resulting in additive nephrotoxicity. Additionally, in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B, tenofovir should not be administered in combination with adefovir to avoid multi-drug resistance. If coadministration is necessary, patients should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus, and urine glucose and protein. (Major) Patients who are concurrently taking adefovir with antiretrovirals (i.e., anti-retroviral nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs)) are at risk of developing lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis. Lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis, including fatal cases, have been reported with the use of nucleoside analogs alone or in combination with antiretrovirals. A majority of these cases have been in women; obesity and prolonged nucleoside exposure may also be risk factors. Particular caution should be exercised when administering nucleoside analogs to any patient with known risk factors for hepatic disease; however, cases have also been reported in patients with no known risk factors. Suspend adefovir in any patient who develops clinical or laboratory findings suggestive of lactic acidosis or pronounced hepatotoxicity (which may include hepatomegaly and steatosis even in the absence of marked transaminase elevations).
Alogliptin; Metformin: (Moderate) Certain medications used concomitantly with metformin may increase the risk of lactic acidosis. Cationic drugs that are eliminated by renal tubular secretion, such as lamivudine, may decrease metformin elimination by competing for common renal tubular transport systems.
Amikacin: (Moderate) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Amiloride: (Moderate) Drugs that are actively secreted via cationic tubular secretion, such as amiloride, should be co-administered with caution with lamivudine since they could increase lamivudine plasma concentrations, and therefore lamivudine associated adverse reactions, via potential competition for renal cationic secretion.
Amiloride; Hydrochlorothiazide, HCTZ: (Moderate) Drugs that are actively secreted via cationic tubular secretion, such as amiloride, should be co-administered with caution with lamivudine since they could increase lamivudine plasma concentrations, and therefore lamivudine associated adverse reactions, via potential competition for renal cationic secretion.
Aminoglycosides: (Moderate) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Aminosalicylate sodium, Aminosalicylic acid: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Amiodarone: (Moderate) Coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with amiodarone may result in increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir, leading to an increase in tenofovir-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a P-gp substrate and amiodarone is a P-gp inhibitor.
Amlodipine; Celecoxib: (Moderate) Avoid administering tenofovir, PMPA concurrently with or recently after a nephrotoxic agent, such as high-dose or multiple nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Cases of acute renal failure, some requiring hospitalization and renal replacement therapy, have been reported after high-dose or multiple NSAIDs were initiated in patients who appeared stable on tenofovir. Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Amoxicillin; Clarithromycin; Omeprazole: (Moderate) Caution is advised when administering tenofovir, PMPA, a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, concurrently with inhibitors of P-gp, such as clarithromycin. Coadministration may result in increased absorption of tenofovir. Monitor for tenofovir-associated adverse reactions.
Amphotericin B lipid complex (ABLC): (Minor) Additive nephrotoxicity can also occur if amphotericin B is given concomitantly with tenofovir. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Amphotericin B liposomal (LAmB): (Minor) Additive nephrotoxicity can also occur if amphotericin B is given concomitantly with tenofovir.

Aspirin, ASA; Oxycodone: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Atazanavir: (Moderate) Tenofovir decreases atazanavir AUC and Cmin. If atazanavir and tenofovir, PMPA are to be coadministered, it is recommended that atazanavir 300 mg be given with ritonavir 100 mg and tenofovir 300 mg once per day with food in patients >= 40 kg; atazanavir should not be coadministered with tenofovir without ritonavir. Data are insufficient to recommend atazanavir dosing in children < 40 kg who are also receiving concomitant tenofovir. In three post-marketing clinical trials, atazanavir AUC and Cmin were decreased by approximately 25% and 23 to 40%, respectively, when atazanavir was coadministered with tenofovir, PMPA as compared to atazanavir alone. Coadministration of atazanavir and tenofovir without ritonavir could lead to loss or lack of virologic response and possible resistance to atazanavir. In addition, atazanavir appears to increase tenofovir plasma concentrations, which could lead to adverse effects associated with tenofovir, including renal disorders. Increased tenofovir concentrations have been noted in the following combination regimens: tenofovir with ritonavir 'boosted' atazanavir; tenofovir, atazanavir, and lopinavir; ritonavir. Patients who receive tenofovir with atazanavir and any form/dose of ritonavir should be monitored for tenofovir-associated adverse events, with tenofovir being discontinued in patients who develop such adverse events. Although there are varying results in reports of an interaction between tenofovir and lopinavir; ritonavir, the clinical significance of an interaction is suspected to be insignificant. In treatment-experienced patients >= 40 kg receiving H2-antagonists and tenofovir, atazanavir should be dosed 400 mg with ritonavir 100 mg once daily with food.
Atazanavir; Cobicistat: (Moderate) Tenofovir decreases atazanavir AUC and Cmin. If atazanavir and tenofovir, PMPA are to be coadministered, it is recommended that atazanavir 300 mg be given with ritonavir 100 mg and tenofovir 300 mg once per day with food in patients >= 40 kg; atazanavir should not be coadministered with tenofovir without ritonavir. Data are insufficient to recommend atazanavir dosing in children < 40 kg who are also receiving concomitant tenofovir. In three post-marketing clinical trials, atazanavir AUC and Cmin were decreased by approximately 25% and 23 to 40%, respectively, when atazanavir was coadministered with tenofovir, PMPA as compared to atazanavir alone. Coadministration of atazanavir and tenofovir without ritonavir could lead to loss or lack of virologic response and possible resistance to atazanavir. In addition, atazanavir appears to increase tenofovir plasma concentrations, which could lead to adverse effects associated with tenofovir, including renal disorders. Increased tenofovir concentrations have been noted in the following combination regimens: tenofovir with ritonavir 'boosted' atazanavir; tenofovir, atazanavir, and lopinavir; ritonavir. Patients who receive tenofovir with atazanavir and any form/dose of ritonavir should be monitored for tenofovir-associated adverse events, with tenofovir being discontinued in patients who develop such adverse events. Although there are varying results in reports of an interaction between tenofovir and lopinavir; ritonavir, the clinical significance of an interaction is suspected to be insignificant. In treatment-experienced patients >= 40 kg receiving H2-antagonists and tenofovir, atazanavir should be dosed 400 mg with ritonavir 100 mg once daily with food.
Bacitracin: (Moderate) Tenofovir-containing products should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent, such as bacitracin. Tenofovir is primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Coadministration of tenofovir with drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion may increase concentrations of tenofovir and/or the co-administered drug. Drugs that decrease renal function may also increase concentrations of tenofovir. Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Monitor patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.

Brigatinib: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in tenofovir-related adverse reactions if coadministration with brigatinib is necessary. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and BCRP. Brigatinib inhibits both P-gp and BCRP in vitro and may have the potential to increase concentrations of substrates of these transporters.
Bupivacaine; Meloxicam: (Moderate) Avoid administering tenofovir, PMPA concurrently with or recently after a nephrotoxic agent, such as high-dose or multiple nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Cases of acute renal failure, some requiring hospitalization and renal replacement therapy, have been reported after high-dose or multiple NSAIDs were initiated in patients who appeared stable on tenofovir. Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.

Cabozantinib: (Minor) Monitor for an increase in both cabozantinib- and tenofovir-related adverse reactions if coadministration is necessary. Cabozantinib is a Multidrug Resistance Protein 2 (MRP2) substrate and tenofovir is an MRP2 inhibitor. MRP2 inhibitors have the potential to increase plasma concentrations of cabozantinib. Cabozantinib is also P-gp inhibitor and has the potential to increase plasma concentrations of P-gp substrates such as tenofovir. The clinical relevance of either of these interactions is unknown. (Minor) Monitor for an increase in cabozantinib-related adverse reactions if coadministration with lamivudine is necessary. Cabozantinib is a Multidrug Resistance Protein 2 (MRP2) substrate and lamivudine is an MRP2 inhibitor. MRP2 inhibitors have the potential to increase plasma concentrations of cabozantinib; however, the clinical relevance of this interaction is unknown.
Canagliflozin; Metformin: (Moderate) Certain medications used concomitantly with metformin may increase the risk of lactic acidosis. Cationic drugs that are eliminated by renal tubular secretion, such as lamivudine, may decrease metformin elimination by competing for common renal tubular transport systems.
Cannabidiol: (Moderate) Coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with cannabidiol may result in increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir, leading to an increase in tenofovir-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a P-gp substrate and cannabidiol is a P-gp inhibitor.
Capmatinib: (Moderate) Coadministration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with capmatinib may result in increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir, leading to an increase in tenofovir-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and BCRP substrate and capmatinib is a P-gp and BCRP inhibitor.
Carboplatin: (Moderate) Tenofovir-containing products should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent, such as carboplatin. Tenofovir is primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion.

Cases of acute renal failure, some requiring hospitalization and renal replacement therapy, have been reported after high-dose or multiple NSAIDs were initiated in patients who appeared stable on tenofovir. Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Choline Salicylate; Magnesium Salicylate: (Major) Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, like salicylates should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Cidofovir: (Moderate) Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent, such as cidofovir. If concurrent use is necessary, closely monitor for changes in renal function. Tenofovir is primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Concurrent administration with a drug that reduces renal function or competes for active tubular secretion may increase concentrations of tenofovir and other renally eliminated drugs; thus, increasing the risk of developing renal-related adverse events. Renal impairment, which may include acute renal failure and hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
Cisplatin: (Major) Avoid tenofovir administration with concurrent or recent treatment with cisplatin. Cisplatin can cause nephrotoxicity. Tenofovir is primarily eliminated by the kidneys; drugs that decrease renal function may increase concentrations of tenofovir. Also, cases of acute renal failure after initiation of other nephrotoxic drugs have been reported in HIV-infected patients with risk factors for renal dysfunction who appeared stable on tenofovir treatment; some patients required hospitalization and renal replacement therapy.
Clarithromycin: (Moderate) Caution is advised when administering tenofovir, PMPA, a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, concurrently with inhibitors of P-gp, such as clarithromycin. Coadministration may result in increased absorption of tenofovir. Monitor for tenofovir-associated adverse reactions.
Clindamycin: (Moderate) Concomitant use of tenofovir and clindamycin may result in additive nephrotoxicity. Monitor for renal toxicity if concomitant use is required.
Clofarabine: (Major) Avoid the concomitant use of clofarabine and tenofovir; coadministration may result in additive nephrotoxicity. Additionally, taking these drugs together may alter clofarabine concentrations; clofarabine and tenofovir are both substrates of OAT1 and OAT3.
Colistimethate, Colistin, Polymyxin E: (Moderate) Tenofovir-containing products should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent, such as colistimethate sodium. Tenofovir is primarily excreted via the kidneys by a combination of glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Coadministration of tenofovir with drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion may increase concentrations of tenofovir and/or the co-administered drug. Drugs that decrease renal function may also increase concentrations of tenofovir. Renal impairment, which may include hypophosphatemia, has been reported with the use of tenofovir with a majority of the cases occurring in patients who have underlying systemic or renal disease or who are concurrently taking nephrotoxic agents. Monitor patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus, and urine glucose and protein.

Monitor patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus, and urine glucose and protein.
Conivaptan: (Moderate) Use caution when administering conivaptan and tenofovir concurrently. Conivaptan is an inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Co-administration of conivaptan with P-gp substrates, such as tenofovir, PMPA, can increase tenofovir exposure leading to increased or prolonged therapeutic effects and adverse events.
Cyclosporine: (Major) Tenofovir should be avoided with concurrent or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent; patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, such as cyclosporine, should be carefully monitored for changes in serum creatinine and phosphorus.
Dapagliflozin; Metformin: (Moderate) Certain medications used concomitantly with metformin may increase the risk of lactic acidosis. Cationic drugs that are eliminated by renal tubular secretion, such as lamivudine, may decrease metformin elimination by competing for common renal tubular transport systems.
Darolutamide: (Moderate) Caution is advised with the coadministration of darolutamide and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate due to the potential for increased plasma concentrations of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate increasing the risk of adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a substrate of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and darolutamide is a BCRP inhibitor.
Darunavir: (Moderate) Pharmacokinetic parameters (AUC, Cmax, Cmin) of tenofovir, PMPA are elevated when administered in combination with darunavir and ritonavir.

Dextromethorphan; Quinidine: (Moderate) Caution is advised when administering tenofovir, PMPA, a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, concurrently with inhibitors of P-gp, such as quinidine. Coadministration may result in increased absorption of tenofovir. Monitor for tenofovir-associated adverse reactions.
Dichlorphenamide: (Major) Use of dichlorphenamide and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is not recommended because of increased tenofovir exposure and a risk of tenofovir-related adverse effects. Monitor closely for signs of drug toxicity if coadministration cannot be avoided. For example, it is important to monitor renal and hepatic function for all patients during treatment with tenofovir, as the drug may cause hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity. Increased tenofovir exposure is possible. Tenofovir is a sensitive OAT1 substrate. Dichlorphenamide inhibits OAT1.
Diclofenac: (Moderate) Avoid administering tenofovir, PMPA concurrently with or recently after a nephrotoxic agent, such as high-dose or multiple nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Cases of acute renal failure, some requiring hospitalization and renal replacement therapy, have been reported after high-dose or multiple NSAIDs were initiated in patients who appeared stable on tenofovir. Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Diclofenac; Misoprostol: (Moderate) Avoid administering tenofovir, PMPA concurrently with or recently after a nephrotoxic agent, such as high-dose or multiple nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Consider alternatives to NSAIDs in patients at risk for renal dysfunction. If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Didanosine, ddI: (Major) HIV guidelines recommend against concurrent use of tenofovir, PMPA and didanosine; however, these medications can be used together, if necessary, in patients with a creatinine clearance 60 mL/min or more if the didanosine dose is reduced; decrease the didanosine dose to 250 mg in patients weighing 60 kg or more and to 200 mg in patients weighing 25 to 59 kg. Concurrent administration of tenofovir, PMPA and didanosine, ddI increases the concentration of both didanosine and its active metabolite (dideoxyadenosine 5-triphosphate) which may cause or worsen didanosine-related clinical toxicities, including pancreatitis, symptomatic hyperlactatemia/lactic acidosis, and peripheral neuropathy. In addition, this combination has been associated with CD4 cell count decline despite viral suppression, high rates of early virologic failure, and rapid selection of resistance mutations. The mechanism of the interaction is not known, but the interaction occurs with both buffered and non-buffered didanosine formulations. When coadministered, tenofovir and didanosine EC may be taken under fasted conditions or with a light meal (under 400 kcal, containing 20% or less fat); coadministration of didanosine buffered tablet formulation with tenofovir should be under fasted conditions. Coadministration of tenofovir and didanosine should be undertaken with caution and patients receiving this combination should be monitored closely for didanosine-associated adverse events. Didanosine therapy should be suspended if signs or symptoms of pancreatitis, symptomatic hyperlactatemia, or lactic acidosis develop.

If these drugs must be coadministered, carefully monitor the estimated creatinine creatinine, serum phosphorus, urine glucose, and urine protein prior to, and periodically during, treatment.
Dofetilide: (Major) Dofetilide should be co-administered with tenofovir, PMPA with caution since both drugs are actively secreted via cationic secretion and could compete for common renal tubular transport systems. This results in a possible increase in plasma concentrations of either drug. Increased concentrations of dofetilide may increase the risk for side effects including proarrhythmia. Careful patient monitoring and dose adjustment of dofetilide is recommended. (Moderate) Drugs that are actively secreted via cationic secretion, such as lamivudine, should be co-administered with dofetilide with caution since they could increase dofetilide plasma concentrations via potential competition for renal tubular secretion.
Donepezil; Memantine: (Moderate) Memantine is excreted in part by renal tubular secretion. Competition of memantine for excretion with other drugs that are also eliminated by tubular secretion, such as lamivudine, could result in elevated serum concentrations of one or both drugs.
Dronedarone: (Moderate) Caution is advised when administering tenofovir, PMPA, a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, concurrently with inhibitors of P-gp, such as dronedarone. Coadministration may result in increased absorption of tenofovir. Monitor for tenofovir-associated adverse reactions.
Echinacea: (Moderate) Use Echinacea sp. with caution in patients taking medications for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Some experts have suggested that Echinacea's effects on the immune system might cause problems for patients with HIV infection, particularly with long-term use. There may be less risk with short-term use (less than 2 weeks). A few pharmacokinetic studies have shown reductions in blood levels of some antiretroviral medications when Echinacea was given, presumably due to CYP induction. However, more study is needed for various HIV treatment regimens. Of the agents studied, the interactions do not appear to be significant or to require dose adjustments at the time of use. Although no dose adjustments are required, monitoring drug concentrations may give reassurance during co-administration. Monitor viral load and other parameters carefully during therapy.

Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (although sometimes classified with the NRTIs). Combination therapy targets different points in the life cycle of HIV, reducing viral capacity to mutate to drug-resistant strains.
 
Lamivudine: Lamivudine inhibits viral reverse transcriptase in both HIV-1 and HBV. When used in combination with efavirenz and tenofovir, it is used specifically for its activity against HIV. Lamivudine is a synthetic nucleoside analog of cytosine and is phosphorylated by cellular enzymes to its active 5'-triphosphate metabolite, lamivudine triphosphate. Lamivudine triphosphate inhibits the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase by competing with the deoxycytidine 5'-triphosphate and by being incorporated into nascent viral DNA, resulting in chain termination.
HIV-1 resistance to lamivudine is predominately due to a methionine to valine or isoleucine (M184V/I) substitution in reverse transcriptase. Cross-resistance is expected with abacavir, didanosine, and emtricitabine.
 
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate: Tenofovir inhibits viral reverse transcriptase in both HIV-1 and HBV. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF) is an acyclic nucleoside phosphonate (nucleotide) diester analog of adenosine monophosphate. Tenofovir DF requires initial diester hydrolysis for conversion to tenofovir. Tenofovir is then taken up by cells and undergoes phosphorylation to form tenofovir diphosphate (PMPApp). Tenofovir diphosphate competes with the natural substrate deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (dATP) for incorporation into the DNA. Once incorporated, tenofovir diphosphate, which lacks a 3' hydroxyl group, causes premature DNA chain termination.
HIV-1 isolates that express a K65R amino acid substitutions in reverse transcriptase show a 2- to 4-fold reduction in the susceptibility to tenofovir. In addition, a K70E substitution in HIV-1 reverse transcriptase has been selected by tenofovir and results in reduced susceptibility. The K70E substitution selected clinically by tenofovir results in reduced susceptibility to abacavir, didanosine, emtricitabine, and lamivudine. HIV-1 isolates with the K65R substitution also show reduced susceptibility to lamivudine and emtricitabine.

Lamivudine; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is administered orally.
 
Lamivudine: Lamivudine exhibits low plasma protein binding (less than 36%). Within 12 hours after a single dose, approximately 5% of the dose is excreted in the urine as the trans-sulfoxide metabolite. The majority of the dose is eliminated unchanged in the urine by active organic cationic secretion. The observed mean elimination half-life ranges from 5 to 7 hours.
 
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate: Protein binding of tenofovir is negligible (less than 0.7%) and binding is independent of concentration over the range of 0.01 to 25 mcg/mL. Intracellularly, tenofovir undergoes phosphorylation to its active metabolite, tenofovir diphosphate (PMPApp). Tenofovir and tenofovir diphosphate have a prolonged intracellular half-life (15 to 50 hours). In vitro studies indicate that neither tenofovir disoproxil fumarate nor tenofovir are substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes. Approximately 70% to 80% of the dose is recovered as unchanged drug in the urine. Tenofovir is eliminated by a combination of glomerular filtration and active renal tubular secretion; there may be competition for elimination with other compounds that are also renally eliminated. The terminal elimination half-life is approximately 17 hours.
 
Affected cytochrome P450 isoenzymes and transporters: P-gp, BRCP
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporters. Administration with inhibitors of these transporters may result in increased absorption of tenofovir.

Oral Route

Lamivudine: Following oral administration, the absolutes bioavailability of lamivudine is approximately 86%. Drug exposure (AUC) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) increase in proportion to the dose over a range from 0.25 to 10 mg/kg.
 
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate: The bioavailability in a fasting state is 25%; when given with either a high fat or light meal, tenofovir AUC and Cmax increase by 35% and 15%, respectively.

Pregnancy

Antiretroviral therapy should be provided to all patients during pregnancy, regardless of HIV RNA concentrations or CD4 cell count. Using highly active antiretroviral combination therapy (HAART) to maximally suppress viral replication is the most effective strategy to prevent the development of resistance and to minimize the risk of perinatal transmission. Begin HAART as soon as pregnancy is recognized, or HIV is diagnosed. HIV guidelines recommend the use of lamivudine; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (DF) as a preferred 2-NRTI backbone in patients who are pregnant or trying to conceive. Available data from the Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry (APR), which includes more than 5,500 first trimester exposures to lamivudine and more than 4,655 first trimester exposures to tenofovir DF, have shown no difference in the risk of overall major birth defects when compared to the 2.7% background rate among pregnant women in the US. When exposure occurred in the first trimester, the prevalence of birth defects was 3.1% (95% CI: 2.6 to 3.6) for lamivudine and 2.5% (95% CI: 2 to 3) for tenofovir DF. Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) are known to induce mitochondrial dysfunction. An association of mitochondrial dysfunction in infants and in-utero antiretroviral exposure has been suggested, but not established. While the development of severe or fatal mitochondrial disease in exposed infants appears to be extremely rare, more intensive monitoring of hematologic and electrolyte parameters during the first few weeks of life is advised. Nucleoside analogs have been associated with the development of lactic acidosis, especially during pregnancy. It is unclear if pregnancy augments the incidence of lactic acidosis/hepatic steatosis in patients receiving nucleoside analogs. However, because pregnancy itself can mimic some early symptoms of the lactic acid/hepatic steatosis syndrome or be associated with other significant disorders of liver metabolism, clinicians need to be alert for early diagnosis of this syndrome. Pregnant patients receiving nucleoside analogs should have LFTs and serum electrolytes assessed more frequently during the last trimester of pregnancy, and any new symptoms should be evaluated thoroughly. Regular laboratory monitoring is recommended to determine antiretroviral efficacy. Monitor CD4 counts at the initial visit. Patients who have been on HAART for at least 2 years and have consistent viral suppression and CD4 counts consistently greater than 300 cells/mm3 do not need CD4 counts monitored after the initial visit during the pregnancy. However, CD4 counts should be monitored every 3 months during pregnancy for patients on HAART less than 2 years, patients with CD4 count less than 300 cells/mm3, or patients with inconsistent adherence or detectable viral loads. Monitor plasma HIV RNA at the initial visit (with review of prior levels), 2 to 4 weeks after initiating or changing therapy, monthly until undetectable, and then at least every 3 months during pregnancy. Viral load should also be assessed at approximately 36 weeks gestation, or within 4 weeks of delivery, to inform decisions regarding mode of delivery and optimal treatment for newborns. Patients whose HIV RNA levels are above the threshold for resistance testing (usually greater than 500 copies/mL but may be possible for levels greater than 200 copies/mL in some laboratories) should undergo antiretroviral resistance testing (genotypic testing, and if indicated, phenotypic testing). Resistance testing should be conducted before starting therapy in treatment-naive patients who have not been previously tested, starting therapy in treatment-experienced patients (including those who have received pre-exposure prophylaxis), modifying therapy in patients who become pregnant while receiving treatment, or modifying therapy in patients who have suboptimal virologic response to treatment that was started during pregnancy. DO NOT delay initiation of antiretroviral therapy while waiting on the results of resistance testing; treatment regimens can be modified, if necessary, once the testing results are known. First trimester ultrasound is recommended to confirm gestational age and provide an accurate estimation of gestational age at delivery. A second trimester ultrasound can be used for both anatomical survey and determination of gestational age in those patients not seen until later in gestation. Perform standard glucose screening in patients receiving antiretroviral therapy at 24 to 28 weeks gestation, although it should be noted that some experts would perform earlier screening with ongoing chronic protease inhibitor-based therapy initiated prior to pregnancy, similar to recommendations for patients with high-risk factors for glucose intolerance. Liver function testing is recommended within 2 to 4 weeks after initiating or changing antiretroviral therapy, and approximately every 3 months thereafter during pregnancy (or as needed). All pregnant patients should be counseled about the importance of adherence to their antiretroviral regimen to reduce the potential for the development of resistance and perinatal transmission. It is strongly recommended that antiretroviral therapy, once initiated, not be discontinued. If a patient decides to discontinue therapy, a consultation with an HIV specialist is recommended. There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors outcomes in pregnant patients exposed to lamivudine; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; information about the registry can be obtained at www.apregistry.com or by calling 1-800-258-4263; fax 1-800-800-1052.

HIV treatment guidelines recommend clinicians provide mothers with evidence-based, patient-centered counseling to support shared decision-making regarding infant feeding. Inform patients that use of replacement feeding (i.e., formula or banked pasteurized donor human milk) eliminates the risk of HIV transmission; thus, replacement feeding is recommended for use when mothers with HIV are not on antiretroviral therapy (ART) or do not have suppressed viral load during pregnancy, as well as at delivery. For patients on ART who have achieved and maintained viral suppression during pregnancy (at minimum throughout the third trimester) and postpartum, the transmission risk from breast-feeding is less than 1%, but not zero. Virologically suppressed mothers who choose to breast-feed should be supported in this decision. If breast-feeding is chosen, counsel the patient about the importance of adherence to therapy and recommend that the infant be exclusively breast-fed for up to 6 months of age, as exclusive breast-feeding has been associated with a lower rate of HIV transmission as compared to mixed feeding (i.e., breast milk and formula). Promptly identify and treat mastitis, thrush, and cracked or bleeding nipples, as these conditions may increase the risk of HIV transmission through breast-feeding. Breast-fed infants should undergo immediate diagnostic and virologic HIV testing. Testing should continue throughout breast-feeding and up to 6 months after cessation of breast-feeding. For expert consultation, healthcare workers may contact the Perinatal HIV Hotline (888-448-8765). Both drug components have been shown to pass into human breast milk. Lamivudine was found to be secreted in human breast milk during a study involving 20 breast-feeding mothers with HIV who were administered either 300 mg of lamivudine twice daily as a single agent (n = 10) or lamivudine 150 mg twice daily in combination with zidovudine (n = 10). The mean breast milk concentrations of lamivudine in the respective groups were similar at 1.22 mg/L (range less than 0.5 to 6.09 mg/L) and 0.9 mg/L (range less than 0.5 to 8.2 mg/L). In another study, tenofovir exposure in exclusively breast-fed infants was found to be equivalent to approximately 4.2 micrograms per day. Other antiretroviral medications whose passage into human breast milk have been evaluated include nevirapine, zidovudine, and nelfinavir.
