which class has lactic acidosis and hepatic steatosis   NRTI's with stavudine, zidovudine and didanosine the worst  
🗑
which combo may increase cardio effects in those with cardio risk factors   abacavir and lamivudine combo so brand epzicom  
🗑
drug combo disadvantage of causing peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis, and must be taken on empty stomach   didanosine and lamivudine or didanosine and emtricitabine  
🗑
which drug combo increase toxicities when use with ribavirin   didanosine and lamivudine or didanosine and emtricitabine. zidovudine and ribavirin together will be a double wammy on the bone suppression  
🗑
might think twice before using this class in hemophiliacs because cause an increase risk of bleeding   PI's  
🗑
this combo may cause reanl impairment and may decrease bone mineral density (look in the case for osteoporosis or on a bisphosphate)   tenofovir or emtricitabine  
🗑
what is the preferred NRTI based reg in pregnant women   zidovudine and lamivudine ( don't know why, high incidence of GI effects, a guy wrote these guidelines)

this combo causes bad mitrochondrial tox including lipoatrophy, lactic acidosis and hepatic steatosis   zidovudine lamivudine combo brand for this combivir and also in the trizivir combo  
🗑
why is delavirdine no recommended as initial therapy   inferior virologic efficacy and inconvenient (TID) dosing. rash is worse than with nevirapine, contraindicated with PPI (many HIV patients need)

🗑
ritonavir as sole PI not recommened   high pill burden and GI effects that most can't handle  
🗑
stavudine and lamivudine are not used together why also stavudine and didanosine   significant toxicities like lipoatrophy (- stav and did combo), peripheral neuropahty, hyperlactatemia, lactic acidosis, hepatic steatosis, and pancreatitis. (GEEESE i get it, SE suck)
