Molina JM, Journot V, Morand-Joubert L, et al. Limitations of using an external comparator include differences in methodology and populations, as well as confounding due to the underlying disease.Based on prospective reports to the APR of exposures to RPV-containing regimens during pregnancy (including over 290 exposed during first trimester and over 160 exposed in the second/third trimester), there was no significant increase in overall risk of major birth defects with RPV compared to the background birth defect rate of 2.7% in the U.S. reference population of the MACDP. This study concluded vitamin B6 was not beneficial in the prevention of leukopenia or thrombocytopenia, but found a possible trend towards the prevention of anemia.At least 7 instances of lactic acidosis have been reported after use of this drug. Moreover, genotypic and/or phenotypic resistance to FTC or tenofovir emerged in viruses from 57% (44/77) of the resistance analysis subjects in the RPV arm compared to 26% (11/43) in the EFV arm.Emerging NNRTI substitutions in the RPV resistance analysis of subjects' viruses included V90I, K101E/P/T, E138K/A/Q/G, V179I/L, Y181C/I, V189I, H221Y, F227C/L, and M230L, which were associated with an RPV phenotypic fold change range of 2.6–621. These are not all the possible side effects of emtricitabine. Most events were mild or moderate in severity. Call your healthcare provider for medical advice about side effects. J Antimicrob Chemother 50 (2002): 1017-2621. Decreased hemoglobin (less than 7 g/dL) was only reported in a pediatric patient.Hematuria (greater than 75 RBC/high power field) and glycosuria (3 plus) were reported in 3% and less than 1% of patients, respectively.1. "Simplification Therapy with Once-Daily Emtricitabine, Didanosine, and Efavirenz in HIV-1-Infected Adults with Viral Suppression Receiving a Protease Inhibitor-Based Regimen: A Randomized Trial." The most common side effects leading to discontinuation were diarrhea, headache, nausea, and vomiting.Several cases of peripheral and/or optic neuropathy have been reported, mainly when the duration of therapy was longer than 28 days. Attassi K, Hershberger E, Alam R, Zervos MJ "Thrombocytopenia Associated with Linezolid Therapy." Elevated creatine kinase (greater than 990 units/L in males and 845 units/L in females) was reported in 9% of patients.Elevated AST (greater than 5 x ULN), ALT (greater than 5 x ULN), and bilirubin (greater than 2.5 x ULN) have been reported in up to 6%, up to 5%, and up to 1% of patients, respectively. Clin Infect Dis 49 (2009): 645-6; author reply 64664. The tablets are film coated with a coating material containing hypromellose, lactose monohydrate, polyethylene glycol, titanium dioxide, triacetin.FTC is a white to off-white crystalline powder with a solubility of approximately 112 mg per mL in water at 25 °C.Rilpivirine hydrochloride is a white to almost white powder. This dose is associated with an exposure that is approximately 40 times higher than the exposure in humans at the recommended dose of 25 mg once daily.Tenofovir DF was mutagenic in the in vitro mouse lymphoma assay and negative in an in vitro bacterial mutagenicity test (Ames test). Frampton JE, Perry CM "Emtricitabine: A Review of its Use in the Management of HIV Infection." Cerner Multum, Inc. "Australian Product Information." Gerson SL, Kaplan SL, Bruss JB, et al. Mateu de Antonio J, Grau S, Morales-Molina JA, Marin-Casino M "Thrombocytopenia and anemia associated with linezolid in patients with kidney failure." The most common adverse reactions reported in at least 2 subjects (regardless of severity) include headache (19.4%), depression (19.4%), somnolence (13.9%), nausea (11.1%), dizziness (8.3%), abdominal pain (8.3%), vomiting (5.6%), and rash (5.6%).Observed laboratory abnormalities were comparable to those in adults. Because postmarketing reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.severe skin and hypersensitivity reactions including DRESS (Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms)No postmarketing adverse reactions have been identified for inclusion in this section.hepatic steatosis, hepatitis, increased liver enzymes (most commonly AST, ALT, gamma GT)rhabdomyolysis, osteomalacia (manifested as bone pain and which may contribute to fractures), muscular weakness, myopathyacute renal failure, renal failure, acute tubular necrosis, Fanconi syndrome, proximal renal tubulopathy, interstitial nephritis (including acute cases), nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, renal insufficiency, increased creatinine, proteinuria, polyuriaThe following adverse reactions, listed under the body system headings above, may occur as a consequence of proximal renal tubulopathy: rhabdomyolysis, osteomalacia, hypokalemia, muscular weakness, myopathy, hypophosphatemia.Because Complera is a complete regimen, coadministration with other antiretroviral medications for the treatment of HIV-1 infection is not recommended. Keep Complera in its original container and keep the container tightly closed. In another study (n=295), thrombocytopenia (platelets less than 150 x 10[9]/L) occurred in 6.4% of patients and severe thrombocytopenia (platelets less than 50 x 10[9]/L) occurred in 0.3% using this drug for more than 5 days.
