title: Drug-drug interactions that matter.
abstract: It is increasingly difficult to keep track of information on drug-drug interactions in HIV therapeutics, and the clinical implications of much of the data reported are not immediately evident. Nevertheless, knowledge of drug-drug interactions is necessary to preserve antiretroviral efficacy and to avoid undue risk of toxicity. The following article reviews important drug-drug interactions and accumulating data on newer antiretroviral agents.
