Resistance patterns selected by nevirapine vs. efavirenz in HIV-infected patients failing first-line antiretroviral treatment: a bayesian analysis. [PDF]
WHO recommends starting therapy with a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), i.e. nevirapine or efavirenz, with lamivudine or emtricitabine, plus zidovudine or tenofovir.

Sub-therapeutic nevirapine concentration during antiretroviral treatment initiation among children living with HIV: Implications for therapeutic drug monitoring. [PDF]
Nevirapine, a component of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in resource-limited settings, known for auto-induction of metabolism, is initiated at half therapeutic dose until day 14 ('lead-in period'), and subsequently escalated to full dose. However, studies

Response to antiretroviral therapy after a single, peripartum dose of nevirapine. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A single dose of nevirapine during labor reduces perinatal transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) but often leads to viral nevirapine resistance mutations in mothers and infants.

Nevirapine in HIV maintenance therapy – can “old drugs” survive in current HIV management?
AIMS OF THE STUDY Nevirapine has an exceptional record for long-term tolerability with few side effects in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) combined antiretroviral therapy (cART). Owing to relatively frequent hypersensitivity reactions (HSR)

Clinical perspectives on human genetic screening to prevent nevirapine toxicity [PDF]
Nevirapine is one of the most extensively prescribed antiretroviral drugs worldwide. However, a concern is increased risk for severe toxicity when antiretroviral-naive individuals with higher CD4 T-cell counts initiate nevirapine-containing regimens ...

Nevirapine versus Efavirenz for patients co-infected with HIV and Tuberculosis: A Randomised Non-Inferiority Trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In countries with a high incidence of HIV and tuberculosis co-infection, nevirapine and efavirenz are widely used as antiretroviral therapy but both interact with antituberculosis drugs. We aimed to compare efficacy and safety of a nevirapine-

Nevirapine-associated early hepatotoxicity: incidence, risk factors, and associated mortality in a primary care ART programme in South Africa. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The majority of antiretroviral treatment programmes in sub-Saharan Africa are scaling up antiretroviral treatment using a fixed dose first-line antiretroviral regimen containing stavudine, lamivudine, and nevirapine.
