Non-essential medications, alternate therapy, vitamins and recreational drug use should be discontinued during the HIV PEP regimen (e.g., herbal mood enhancers/sleep aids such as 5-hydroxy-L-triptophan (5HTP or Tryptophan); multi-vitamins).
Kaletra® can decrease the effectiveness of long-term use birth control pills. Barrier form contraceptive (e.g., condom) should be used for 28 days + 2 months.
The use of Combivir® and Kaletra® during pregnancy has not been extensively studied. IF a woman is pregnant: HIV PEP drugs are potentially teratogenic in the 1st trimester (often avoided during this period).
Since Kaletra is a substrate and potent CYP3A4 inhibitor, caution should be used when co-administering Kaletra and CYP3A4 enzyme inducers, inhibitors, or substrates with narrow therapeutic indices. If in doubt, please consult with an HIV Expert or Pharmacist.
STOP HIV PEP if: Grade 4 AE; Hemoglobin <80 g/L; Absolute Neutrophil < 0.5 x 109/L; Platelet Count <20,000 cells/µL; AST / ALT / ALP / Bilirubin > 5X upper limit of normal.
