This speaker has no actual or potential conflicts of interest to disclose in
relation to this presentation
 Identify the role of the primary care healthcare team in
management of HIV patients
 Describe how current antiretroviral medications inhibit the
mechanism of infection of the HIV retrovirus
 Develop a “checklist” for appropriate considerations in
primary care patients with HIV
 Identify common adverse effects of current antiretroviral
medication
The HIV
Diagnosis
 You are a successful and cheerful pharmacist in 2014
 You attend a conference with a presentation on HIV infection in
the primary care setting. There is a special at Jimmy John’s
across the street and they are giving your favorite sandwich
away for free.
 What do you choose to do?
A
SKIP IT
I won’t be
seeing HIV
patients in my
practice,
anyway
B
SKIP IT
I feel comfortable
with HIV
management, and
Jimmy John’s is
delicious
C
ATTEND
They have free
lunch at the
conference,
anyway
• Unfortunately, your friend who told you about this Jimmy
John’s giveaway was mistaken, and it turns out they gave away
free sandwiches yesterday. The store is closed and you get no
lunch.
• You return to your ambulatory care practice after the
conference with a new patient with HIV on your physicians’
schedule. You forget the names of the HIV medications, but
don’t have the handout to reference that was given at the
lecture. You are hungry and sad.
Here’s to better luck next time…
• You attend the presentation and learn a few new things about
how to monitor HIV patients.
• You return to your ambulatory care clinic after the conference
with a new patient with HIV on one of your physicians’
schedule. You remember the adverse effects of the patients
HAART regimen from the lecture, and recommend the
appropriate labs. Your physician is very impressed with your
HIV knowledge.
Congratulations! Continue to the next adventure…

initiate?
AYES
Initiate
atorvastatin 40

B YES
Initiate
simvastatin
40 mg daily
CYES
Initiate
rosuvastatin

 Per the lipid guidelines, this patient qualifies for a moderate or
high intensity statin.
 However, it is recommended to start a lower dose of
atorvastatin in patients also taking a protease inhibitor.
 Your patient develops muscle aches and myalgias shortly after
initiating treatment and stops therapy.

54 yo AA male with HIV, type II DM, HTN, dyslipidemia
HAART regimen of boosted atazanavir/tenofovir/emtricitabine
Patients presents with symptoms of dyspepsia, heartburn
What acid suppressing agent would you start in this patient?
A PPI
Initiate
omeprazole 40
mg daily
B H2RA
Initiate
ranitidine
150 mg BID
C Antacid
Initiate calcium
carbonate
 Absorption of boosted atazanavir can be decreased with
simultaneous administration of PPIs. Therefore, PPIs are not
recommended in PI-experienced patients
 After prescribing your patient omeprazole 40 mg, the patient
is not adequately absorbing his boosted atazanavir, leading to
possible resistance.
Here’s to better luck next time…
 Absorption of boosted atazanavir can be decreased with
administration of certain acid suppressing agents, if not
administered at the appropriate time.
 After prescribing your patient ranitidine 150 mg BID but not
counseling him on the appropriate timing of the doses, the
patient takes it inappropriately and is not adequately
absorbing his boosted atazanavir, leading to possible
resistance.
Here’s to better luck next time…
 If patient takes calcium carbonate simultaneously with
boosted atazanavir, decreased atazanavir concentrations are
expected
 After prescribing your patient calcium carbonate but not
counseling him on the appropriate timing of the doses, the
patient takes it simultaneous with his HAART regimen and is
not adequately absorbing his boosted atazanavir, leading to
possible resistance.
Here’s to better luck next time…
Antiretrovirals with food
requirement
 Efavirenz - empty stomach
 Rilpivirine - at least 400 kcal
 Atazanavir - with food
 Ritonavir - with food
Antiretrovirals interacting with
acid suppressants
 Atazanavir/ritonavir
 Antacid: 2 hr before or 1 hr after

 PPIs not recommended in
PI-experienced patients
 Rilpivirine
 Antacid: 2 hr before or 4 hr after
 H2RA: 12 hr before or 4 hr after
 PPIs contraindicated
 Elvitegravir

 28 yo hispanic female with HIV, asthma
 HAART regimen of efavirenz/tenofovir/emtricitabine
 Patient states she is using condoms as her preferred birth
control method, and states she does not want to conceive.
 Is this an appropriate contraception regimen? What would you
recommend as the most appropriate regimen?
A YES
Condoms also
reduce HIV
transmission
and STD risk
B NO
Prescribe
combined oral
contraceptive in
addition to
condoms
C NO
Prescribe depoprovera in
addition to
condoms
 Condoms are recommended to prevent pregnancy, but also to
decrease HIV and other sexually-transmitted infections
 Recommendations encourage patients to use a secondary
method of contraception to decrease the risk of unplanned
pregnancy
 Your patient is not currently using effective contraception, and
is currently at risk for an unplanned pregnancy while on
efavirenz, which is teratogenic.
Here’s to better luck next time…
 A secondary type of contraception is recommended in
addition to condoms.
 Efavirenz decreases the concentrations of levornogestrel and
norgestimate.
 You choose a combined oral contraception product that does
not interact with efavirenz, and your patient is adequately
protected from unplanned pregnancy while on a teratogenic
medication (efavirenz)
Congratulations! Continue to the next adventure…
 A secondary type of contraception is recommended in
addition to condoms.
 Efavirenz does not interact with the depo-provera injection,
however, both depo-provera and tenofovir run the risk of
decreased bone mineral density
 Your patient is adequately protected from unplanned
pregnancy while on a teratogenic medication (efavirenz),
however, suffers a right tibia fracture five years later.
Here’s to better luck next time…
Recommendations:
 Condom use: Contraception, STD protection, HIV transmission
 Encourage second method of protection
 Drug interactions with combined hormonal contraceptives
 IUD use: Safe and effective. No increase in HIV viral shedding

 Increase in fracture rate by 30-70%
 Three-fold increase in osteoporosis risk
 Increase in Vitamin D deficiency prevalence of 60-75%
 Antiretrovirals or uncontrolled viremia
 Recommendations:
 Screen: Baseline DXA scan should be completed in
postmenopausal women and men aged > 50 years
 Periodic monitoring thereafter – assess other risk factors
 Treat: According to NOF guidelines:
 Vitamin D and/or calcium supplementation
 Bisphosphonate if indicated

 After receiving the PCV13 vaccination today, the patient is
appropriately immunized against pneumococcal infection.
 The patient receives the second dose of PPV23 in five years,
and does not develop pneumonia.
Congratulations! Continue to the next adventure…
 It is recommended that this patient receive a dose of PCV13
one year after the original PPV23 vaccination, prior to
revaccination with PPV23 in 5 years.
 Without the PCV13 vaccination, this patient is not
appropriately immunized and is at risk for pneumococcal
infection.
Here’s to better luck next time…
• If no previous pneumococcal vaccination:
PCV 13
PPV23
in 8 weeks
PPV23
5
years later
• If previous pneumococcal vaccination:
PCV 13 after
at least one
year
PPV23
5 years later

 HIV is a complex disease state that will be seen more
commonly in the primary care setting due to the “chronic”
nature of the disease when treated appropriately
 Important items to monitor in the primary care setting include:
 Metabolic abnormalities
 Contraceptive choice and interactions
 GI complaints and drug interactions
 Osteoporosis
 Vaccinations
 Opportunistic infection prophylaxis
