Interactions between your drugs

Major

etravirine dolutegravir

Applies to: etravirine and dolutegravir

Etravirine may reduce the blood levels of dolutegravir, which may make the medication less effective in treating HIV infection. You should not be taking these medications together unless you are also receiving either atazanavir/ritonavir, darunavir/ritonavir or lopinavir/ritonavir in your HIV regimen, since adding these agents helps to diminish the interaction between etravirine and dolutegravir. Contact a healthcare professional if you have any questions or concerns, and seek immediate medical attention if your condition worsens or you develop new infections during treatment with these medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
