Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Intelence Work?

  1. Binding to the reverse transcriptase enzyme of HIV, preventing the conversion of viral RNA into DNA. This action inhibits viral replication.
  2. Unlike nucleoside analogs, etravirine interacts with the enzyme in a way that allows it to maintain activity against HIV strains that are resistant to other NNRTIs.

Common Dosages

  • Etravirine: 100 mg tablets, usually taken twice daily after a meal.

Typical Dosing

  • For HIV-1 infection: The recommended dose is 200 mg (two 100 mg tablets) taken twice daily with meals to enhance absorption.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Treatment of HIV-1 infection in combination with other antiretroviral agents in patients with a history of treatment failure or with resistant HIV strains.

Who Shouldn't Take Intelence?

  • Known hypersensitivity to etravirine or any components of the formulation.
  • Concomitant use with certain medications that can lead to serious interactions, particularly those that induce CYP450 enzymes.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Intelence exactly as prescribed, with food, to ensure maximum absorption and effectiveness.
  • Inform your healthcare provider of all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to avoid potential interactions.
  • Regular monitoring of liver function and viral load is essential to assess treatment effectiveness and safety.

  • Liver Health: Regular monitoring of liver function is recommended, particularly for patients with pre-existing liver conditions.
  • Drug Interactions: Etravirine has the potential for significant interactions with other medications due to its effects on the CYP450 enzyme system.

Interactions with Intelence
