Dolutegravir (applies to Tivicay PD) hepatitis

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Infectious Hepatitis

Patients with underlying hepatitis B or C may be at increased risk for worsening or development of transaminase elevations with the use of dolutegravir. In some cases there was hepatitis B reactivation particularly in a setting where anti- hepatitis treatment was withdrawn. Appropriate laboratory testing prior to initiating treatment and monitoring for hepatotoxicity during therapy is recommended in patients with underlying hepatitis B or C.
