Why this application may be useful:
In HIV therapy, patients take more than one anti-HIV medication at a time and possibly other drugs to treat co-existing conditions. Many of the drug combinations have the potential to interact and this can affect either the patient's safety or the effectiveness of treatment. For this reason some drug combinations should not be given at all, while other drugs may be used together with caution, possibly requiring adjustments to dosage or time of administration. This application is a guide to interactions that may occur between different anti-HIV drugs and other medications that the HIV-infected patient may be prescribed. The application is regularly updated as new data emerge. Full details about the interactions can be found at www.hiv-druginteractions.org.

Isicelo lutholakala mahhala futhi lakhiwe ngokuhlanganyela the Liverpool Drug Interactions Group at the University of Liverpool and Podmedics.

Izidingo:
Lena isicelo "ungaxhunywanga" ukuthi ukulandwa kudivayisi yakho (~ 8.2 MB). Uxhumano lwe-inthanethi ayidingekile ukusebenzisa isicelo, kodwa kuyadingeka ukuze ukulanda updates.

Kungani lolu hlelo lokusebenza kungenzeka kube ewusizo:
In therapy HIV, iziguli thatha ezingaphezu kweyodwa imithi anti-HIV ngesikhathi cishe nezinye izidakamizwa ukwelapha izimo co-ekhona.

Ngenxa yalesi sizathu inhlanganisela ethile izidakamizwa akufanele inikezwe nhlobo, kanti kungenzeka ezinye izidakamizwa esetshenziswa ndawonye ngokuqapha, okungenzeka edinga izinguquko ukuze Isikali noma ngesikhathi administration.

- Now akwazi ukucinga amagama izidakamizwa kanye ebonakalayo ngokusebenzisa i list AZ.
- Side by side Ukukhetha izidakamizwa display for amaphilisi.
- Interactions manje ezisenza ukubaluleka (red, amber ke green) kunokuba ngama-alfabethi.
