Sintesi

Atazanavir needs an acidic stomach for dissolution, and nizatidine raises gastric pH. This can substantially lower atazanavir levels and risk virologic failure and resistance.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Atazanavir and Nizatidine can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Atazanavir belongs to Anti Virals; Nizatidine belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Nizatidine raises gastric pH, reducing the pH-dependent solubility and absorption of atazanavir.

Cosa fare

Give atazanavir with or at least 10 hours after the H2 blocker, and use ritonavir boosting at the labeled doses; avoid in treatment-experienced patients unless labeled adjustments are followed.
