Core Tip |
In a cohort of adults with suppressed human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) viremia, the switch from fixed-dose coformulations to the corresponding multitablet regimens (MTRs) did not affect the effectiveness of antiretroviral therapy in terms of virological response and immunological recovery. Our data came from a well-established study population that was demographically representative of the Italian HIV-infected population, with very high levels of adherence and complete virological suppression. By involving patients in the decision to switch to a MTR for economic reasons, the magnitude of the potential clinical benefits from fixed dose coformulation regimens appears to be cancelled by the efficacy and tolerability of the antiretroviral drugs currently available in MTRs, even in a generic formulation, despite a small risk of drug discontinuation in patients who switched to MTRs because of mere convenience issues due to the number of tablets. |
