Nevirapine was the first nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor that was approved for treatment of HIV infection and quickly became an important component of HAART. As experience with this drug grew, potential toxicities and significant clinical benefits became apparent. With the

The non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) efavirenz and nevirapine are chemically distinct, but both may cause cutaneous hypersensitivity and hepatotoxicity. We reviewed the literature to assess the evidence for cross-reactivity between nevirapine and efavirenz. All papers, abstracts, or presentations, regardless

The risk of adverse drug events associated with nevirapine (NVP) is suggested to be greater in pregnant women. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of severe adverse events in HIV-positive women who initiated NVP while pregnant. We searched six

The package insert for nevirapine (NVP) cautions use in HIV-infected women (including pregnant women) with CD4 counts ≥250 cells/µl. However, recent studies showed that the CD4 count of pregnant women receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) was not predictive of NVP toxicity.

Nevirapine, a HIV non nucleosidic reverse transcriptase inhibitor, displays an inter-individual variability in its pharmacokinetics parameters, related to its hepatic metabolism. Based on literature, is the nevirapine therapeutic drug monitoring relevant? In naïve and pre-treated HIV infected patients, the probability
