Abstract:
:HIV-positive patients are now undergoing solid organ transplantation at increasing rates, with successful outcomes. Transplantation in this unique patient population presents new challenges in the postoperative management of both antiretroviral regimens and immunosuppressive regimens. This review highlights the drug-drug interactions between commonly used immunosuppressive and antiretroviral agents. As more antiretroviral regimens are cautiously initiated in the posttransplant period, further research is needed to identify drug-drug interactions to minimize toxicities and improve long-term survival and graft function.
