Dosage Considerations – Should be Given as Follows:

• See “Dosages”

If your medical doctor is using this medicine to treat your pain, your doctor or pharmacist may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for them. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with your doctor, health care provider, or pharmacist first.

• Rilpivirine has severe interactions with at least 21 other drugs.

• Rilpivirine has moderate interactions with at least 137 other drugs.
• Rilpivirine has minor interactions with the following drugs
  • chloroquine
  • crizotinib

This information does not contain all possible interactions or adverse effects. Visit the RxList Drug Interaction Checker for any drug interactions. Therefore, before using this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist about all your products. Keep a list of all your medications with you and share this information with your doctor and pharmacist. Check with your healthcare professional or doctor for additional medical advice, or if you have health questions or concerns.

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity
• Coadministration with drugs (e.g, CYP inducers likephenobarbital,dexamethasone,oxcarbazepine,phenytoin, orcarbamazepine) where significant decreases in rilpivirine plasma concentrations may occur, which may result in loss of virologic response and possible resistance and cross-resistance to other NNRTIs
• Contraindicated with drugs that increasegastricpH (. g,esomeprazole,lansoprazole,omeprazole,pantoprazole,rabeprazole) that may decrease rilpivirine absorption and result in decreased rilpivirine plasma concentrations

Effects of drug abuse

• None

Short-Term Effects

• See “What Are Side Effects Associated with Using Rilpivirine?”

Long-Term Effects

• See “What Are Side Effects Associated with Using Rilpivirine?”

Cautions

• Coadministration with other NNRTIs may either increase or decrease rilpivirine; avoid use with other NNRTIs
• May increase the risk for depressive disorders
• 肝脏不良反应报道;联合国的患者derlying hepatitis B or C, or marked increased transaminases prior to treatment may be at increased risk; monitor for hepatotoxicity before initiating and during treatment
• Redistribution/accumulation of body fat, including centralobesity, dorsocervical fat enlargement (buffalo hump), peripheralwasting, facial wasting, breast enlargement, and “cushingoidappearance” have been observed in patients receivingantiretroviral therapy
• Immune reconstitution syndrome During the initial phase of combination ART treatment, patients whoseimmune systemresponds may develop aninflammatory responseto indolent orresidualopportunistic infections (.g,Mycobacterium avium complex,CMV,Pneumocystis pneumonia,TB)
• Severe skin and hypersensitivity reactions reported, including cases of drug reaction witheosinophiliaand systemic symptoms (DRESS), with rilpivirine-containing regimens; immediately discontinue treatment if hypersensitivity or rash with systemic symptoms or elevations in hepatic serum biochemistries develop and closely monitor clinical status, including hepatic serum biochemistries
• Virologic failure & resistance
  • More rilpivirine-treated individuals with HIV-1 RNA above 100,000 copies/mL at the start of therapy experienced virologic failure compared to those with below 100,000 copies/mL
  • Observed virologic failure rate in rilpivirine-treated individuals conferred a higher rate of overall treatment resistance and cross-resistance to the NNRTI class compared toefavirenz
  • More individuals treated with rilpivirine developedlamivudine/emtricitabine-associated resistance compared to efavirenz
• Drug interaction overview
  • Drugs that induce or inhibit CYP3A may affect the clearance of rilpivirine
  • Coadministration with CYP3A4 inducers may decrease plasma concentrations of rilpivirine and result in loss of virologic response and possible resistance to rilpivirine OR to non-nucleosidereverse transcriptaseinhibitors (NNRTIs)
  • Coadministration with CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase plasma concentrations of rilpivirine
  • Coadministration with drugs that increase gastric pH may decrease plasma concentrations of rilpivirine and result in loss of virologic response and possible resistance to rilpivirine or to NNRTIs
  • In healthy subjects, rilpivirine 75 mg orally once a day (3 times rilpivirine dose) and 300 mg orally once a day (12 times rilpivirine dose) have been shown to prolong the QTc interval; consider alternatives when coadministered with a drug with a known risk of torsade de pointes

Pregnancy and Lactation

• Healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by calling theAntiretroviralPregnancy Registry (APR) at 1-800-258-4263
• Available data from the APR show no difference in the overall risk of birth defects for rilpivirine compared with the background rate for major birth defects of 2.7% in the Metropolitan AtlantaCongenitalDefects Program (MACDP) reference population
• Based on the experience of HIV-1-infected pregnant women who completed a clinical trial through thepostpartumperiod with a rilpivirine-based regimen, no dose adjustments are required for pregnant patients who are already on a stable dose regimen prior to pregnancy and who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL); the recommended dosage is one 25 mg tablet once daily taken orally with a meal; lower exposures of the drug were observed during pregnancy, therefore viral load should be monitored closely
• Lactation
  • Unknown whether distributed in human breast milk; there are no data on the presence of drug in human milk, its effects on the breastfed infant, or on milk production; the drug is present in rat milk
  • The CDC recommends that women in the United States should not breastfeed their infants because of the risk of the following
  • Postnatal HIV transmission (in HIV-negative infants)
  • Developing viral resistance (in HIV-positive infants)
  • Adverse reactions in nursing infants
