Should not by itself represent a reason to withhold anti-HIV therapy. After beginning HAART liver enzymes should be monitored because an ALT flare may occur within the first 6 months, but usually the flares subside. Continuing monitoring of ALT AST is recommended for HCV and HBV coinfected individuals. A number of studies find that HIV accelerates HCV and HBV progression to a swifter pace than for individuals who have HCV or HBV without HIV. Recent results from a few studies suggest that reducing HIV viral load to undetectable and increasing CD4 count may have a beneficial effect on HCV disease progression, but this finding needs further study. At the EASL meeting Spring 2004 ; Norbert Brau reported on a study in the Veterans Administration finding that patients with undetectable HIV RNA who also were coinfected with HCV did not experience faster HCV progression than HCV monoinfected who did not have HIV. These findings suggest that full suppression of HIV may assist in slowing liver disease progression. Since Brau's presentation several additional published studies have observed similar findings. HAART may have a dual effect on the progression of chronic hepatitis C-associated liver fibrosis by reducing immunosuppression, but also association with hepatotoxicity. Further studies are in order to better understand these dynamics. The FDA issued a report in July 2004 regarding Nevirzpine and hepatoxicity. The FDA said-- Severe and life-threatening hepatotoxicity, and fatal fulminant hepatitis have been reported in patients treated with Viramune nevirapine ; . Hepatic adverse events have been reported to occur more frequently during the first 18 weeks of treatment, but such events may occur at any time during treatment. In controlled clinical trials, clinical hepatic events regardless of severity occurred in 4.0% range 2.5% to 11.0% ; of patients who received the NNRTI Viramune nevirapine ; and 1.2% of patients in control groups. Transaminase elevations ALT or AST 5X ULN ; were observed in 8.8% of patients receiving Viramune and 6.2% of patients in control groups in clinical trials. Higer CD4 counts, increased AST ALT levels, and co-infection with hepatitis B or C the start of antiretroviral therapy are associated with a greater risk of hepatic adverse events. Patients with higher CD4 counts before starting HAART 250 cells in women and 400 cells in men ; appear to be at higher risk for rash-associated hepatic events with Viramune. Women appear to have a three fold higher risk than men for rash-associated hepatic events 4.6% versus 1.5% ; . In a retrospective study review, women with CD4 counts 250 cells before startinng HAART had a 9 fold higher risk of rash-associated hepatic adverse events compared to women with CD4 counts 250 cells 8.4% versus 0.9% ; . An increased risk was observed in men with CD4 counts 400 cells before starting HAART 4.5% versus 0.7.

Q: What would you do to implement a reduction in ADRs? The basis for most ADRs are: 1 ; variability between individuals in terms of the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of a drug ; 2 ; drug-drug interactions. Many of the former will be predictable in the future or are now ; based on an individual patient's genotype e.g. for P450 polymorphisms ; . However, drug-drug interactions are the single most important and readily preventable ; cause of ADRs. Hence, strategies for reducing ADRs must set about reducing drug interactions e.g. Educate Prescribers at all levels about interactions and the particular risk of polypharmacy Monitoring of prescription events e.g. by Ward based pharmacists Use of electronic prescription to prevent highlight prescriptions that would cause interactions, for example, protease inhibitors.

Drugs from two different families. This involves choosing two `nukes', plus either an NNRTI or a protease inhibitor PI ; boosted by ritonavir. The best results have been using combinations like these. This is reflected in both UK and US treatment guidelines. The UK treatment guidelines recommend the third drug to be an NNRTI, with a preference for efavirenz over nevirapine. This is mainly because NNRTIs require fewer pills or diet requirements than most PIs.

Pharmacology cont. ; Nevlrapine is about 60% bound to plasma proteins in the plasma concentration range of 1 to mcg ml.[12] Nevriapine is extensively biotransformed via cytochrome P450 CYP ; metabolism to several hydroxylated metabolites. Biotransformation is primarily by isozymes from the CYP3A family, but other isozymes may be involved with nevirapine metabolism.[13] In a pharmacokinetic study, approximately 81% of a radiolabeled dose was recovered in the urine, with greater than 80% of that made up of glucuronide conjugates of hydroxylated metabolites. Approximately 10% of a radiolabeled dose was recovered in the feces. Less than 5% of the recovered radiolabeled dose was made up of the parent compound; therefore, renal excretion plays a minor role in elimination of the parent compound.[14] In children, nevirapine elimination accelerates during the first years of life, reaching a maximum at around 2 years of age, followed by a gradual decline during the rest of childhood.[15] The mechanism of resistance or reduced susceptibility to nevirapine has not been fully determined, but mutation of HIV RT appears to be involved. A single mutation may be sufficient to result in high-level resistance to nevirapine. Drug-resistant HIV emerges rapidly and uniformly when nevirapine is administered as monotherapy. Mutations conferring resistance to nevirapine could be observed after a single dose, even with a low level of viral replication. Therefore, nevirapine should always be administered in combination with at least one other antiretroviral agent.[16] Resistance to nevirapine usually confers class resistance to other NNRTIs efavirenz and delavirdine ; . However, nevirapine-resistant isolates were susceptible to the nucleoside analogues zidovudine and didanosine. Similarly, zidovudine-resistant isolates were susceptible to nevirapine in vitro.[17] Neviarpine demonstrated additive to synergistic in vitro activity against HIV-1 in combination regimens with zidovudine, didanosine, stavudine, lamivudine, saquinavir, and indinavir.[18] Because nevirapine and HIV protease inhibitors PIs ; , such as amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir, have different enzyme targets, cross resistance between nevirapine and these drugs is unlikely.[19] Adverse Events Toxicity Granulocytopenia occurring more frequently in children ; , skin rash, fever, hepatitis prodromal symptoms, hepatotoxicity, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, gastrointestinal effects, fatigue, and headache are the most common adverse effects seen with nevirapine use.[20] Clinically symptomatic hepatotoxicity has been observed with initiation of and during continued use of nevirapine. Among the NNRTIs, nevirapine has the greatest potential for causing clinical hepatitis. Severe, life-threatening, and in some cases fatal hepatotoxicity, including fulminant and cholestatic hepatitis, hepatic necrosis, and hepatic failure, has been reported in patients treated with nevirapine. In some cases, patients presented with nonspecific prodromal signs or symptoms of hepatitis and progressed to hepatic failure.[21] The greatest risk of severe and potentially fatal hepatic events, often associated with rash, occurs in the first 6 weeks of nevirapine treatment. Approximately two-thirds of the cases of nevirapine-associated clinical hepatitis occur within the first 12 weeks of use.[22] However, the risk continues after this time and patients should be monitored closely for the first 18 weeks of treatment. Clinical hepatitis and hepatic failure may be isolated or associated with signs of hypersensitivity, which may include severe rash or rash accompanied by fever, general malaise, fatigue, muscle or joint aches, blisters, oral lesions, conjunctivitis, facial edema, hepatitis, eosinophilia, granulocytopenia, lymphadenopathy, and renal dysfunction. Patients with signs or symptoms of hepatitis must seek medical evaluation immediately and should be advised to discontinue nevirapine. In some cases, hepatic injury progresses despite discontinuation of treatment.[23] Based on serious and life-threatening hepatotoxicity observed in controlled and uncontrolled studies, nevirapine should not be initiated in adult females with CD4 counts greater 2.

Cerides may also be elevated. Paraproteinemias e.g., hypergammaglobulinemia in macroglobulinemia, myeloma, lymphoma and lymphocytic leukemias ; and autoimmune disorders e.g., systemic lupus erythematosis ; can also cause hypertriglyceridemia, probably through immune-mediated interference of lipolysis. Medications. Many drugs increase triglyceride concentrations Box 1 ; . If one is considered to cause hypertriglyceridemia, the indications for that medication should be reviewed. If dosage reductions, changes in route of administration or substitution with another class of medication are not practical, then marked elevations of triglycerides should be treated with diet or pharmacologic agents. Patients taking highly active antiretroviral therapy, particularly protease inhibitors, frequently experience lipodystrophy, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia; up to 80% and 50% of patients develop hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia, respectively.16 Combination highly active antiretroviral therapy was found to be associated with a 26% increase in relative risk of cardiovascular disease.17 Ritonavir and lopinavir are most strongly associated with dyslipidemias; 16 3 reversetranscriptase inhibitors, the nucleoside stavudine and the nonnucleoside nevirapine16 and efavirenz, 18 less consistently so. Often, triglyceride levels can improve when agents are switched if there is no compromise in antiretroviral efficacy ; .18, 19 In one study, 19 for instance, a change from a protease inhibitor to nevirapine or efavirenz reduced triglyceride levels by about 25%; the addition of pravastatin or bezafibrate further reduced them by about 40%. Second-generation antipsychotic medications are known to be associated with obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, 20 hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes.21 Clozapine and olanzapine disturb metabolism the most; risperidone and quetiapine have intermediate effects; and aripiprazole and ziprasidone, the fewest.20 Psychiatric disorders, because of associated lifestyles, may also predispose those affected to metabolic disturbances.22 Patients taking second-generation antipsychotics should be monitored regularly every 812 months ; for weight gain and changes in fasting plasma glucose and lipoprotein levels.21 and persantine.

Table 4 summarises the published data on the effects of NNRTIs on protease inhibitor pharmacokinetic profiles. Delavirdine causes elevated plasma concentrations of saquinavir, ritonavir, indinavir and nelfinavir.1315 However, efavirenz apparently increases nelfinavir plasma concentrations but reduces concentrations of indinavir and amprenavir; ie, efavirenz can both inhibit and induce metabolism.16, 17 Concurrent administration of ketoconazole increases the AUC by 62% with indinavir, by 35% with nelfinavir and by 300% with saquinavir.6 Again, because the bioavailability of saquinavir is poor this interaction may be advantageous, increasing the amount of drug in the circulation.

Ing abacavir, nevirapine, and combivir; cessation of antiretrovirals and initiation of low-dose antipsychotic therapy led to her recovery.11 In a MEDLINE search, one other case of catatonia linked to liver transplant was found. The patient was a 50year-old woman with stereotypies, posturing, rigidity, negativism, staring, and delusions of melancholy and persecution 72 hours posttransplant. She was treated with oral zolpidem, 10 mg, followed by oxazepam, 40 mg day, and she showed dramatic improvement within 30 minutes of taking the zolpidem.12 Our case exhibited a similar course. Both patients initially did well postoperatively; both patients had persecutory delusions in addition to catatonia; and both patients experienced complete reversal of catatonia with treatment. Catatonia should be included in the differential diagnosis whenever its signs and symptoms present themselves, especially given the success of treatment with sedative anticonvulsants and ECT and the favorable outcome associated with prompt treatment.
In general, anti-HIV therapy can cause some degree of liver toxicity. This may occur because two classes of therapies used in HAART -- protease inhibitors and non-nukes -- are processed by the liver. In one study of 300 HIV positive subjects, half of whom were co-infected with HCV, researchers found that those who used the protease inhibitor ritonavir Norvir ; were five times more likely to develop liver toxicity than those who used other protease inhibitors such as indinavir Crixivan ; or nelfinavir Viracept ; . Separately, other researchers have found that use of the non-nuke n4virapine Viramune ; is associated with an increased risk of liver damage. Bear in mind that only about 10% of co-infected PHAs who use HAART have had to stop taking HAART because of severe liver damage and norpace.

This article provides background information on the use of nonoxynol-9 containing contraceptives provided by the National Family Planning Program Title X ; in the United States in 1999. Most women in the United States with HIV become infected through sexual transmission. A woman's choice of contraception can affect her risk for HIV transmission during sexual contact with an infected partner.

Available at: fhi. org en fp fppubs network v20-2 nt2022 . Part of an entire issue dedicated to female barrier methods, this article provides a general introduction to information about spermicide use, with the primary focus on pregnancy prevention. It indicates that women should not expect sizable protection against STIs from use of spermicide, and that recent studies indicate that repeated use can irritate the vaginal lining, possibly increasing susceptibility to HIV and other STIs. The article discusses the effectiveness of spermicde use alone, as well as use with other barrier methods. It also discusses health effects and acceptability. FHI.

Available at: fhi en fp fppubs network v17-3 nt1731 ; These three articles from the Adolescent Reproductive Health issue of Network provide an excellent and timely update on the state of knowledge about Nonoxynol-9 N-9 ; film and STD prevention. The first article describes the two-year study of condom users some of whom also used a spermicide ; in Cameroon conducted by FHI. The study concluded that vaginal spermicide film was safe but did not confer any additional protection to women from HIV, gonorrhea, or chlamydia infection beyond the protection already provided by condoms. These findings raise doubts about the additional benefits from using N-9 film. The other two articles provide an excellent overview of what is known about N-9. International Planned Parenthood Federation, Medical Advisory Panel IMAP ; . IMAP recommendations on nonoxynol9. IPPF Medical Bulletin 37 1 ; : February 2003 ; . This statement was drafted by IMAP at its May 2002 meeting, and outlines its recommendations on use of nonoxynol-9. Because nonoxynol-9 does not protect against HIV, cervical gonohorrhea, or chlamydia infection and may increase HIV risk ; , it should not be used for HIV STI prevention. Nonoxynol-9 's contraceptive effectiveness is low compared to other methods; therefore it should be used only in combination with a female mechanical barrier method. Condoms prelubricated with nonoxynol-9 should be phased out of family planning programs. Women at high risk of HIV should not use any nonoxynol-9 products, for instance, ritonavir.
