Interactions between Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors and Protease Inhibitors

Table 25a. Interactions Between Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors and Protease Inhibitors

Note: Interactions associated with DLV, FPV, IDV, NFV, TPV, and SQV are not included in this table. Please refer to the Food and Drug Administration product labels for information regarding interactions between these drugs and other concomitant drugs.

Rilpivirine (RPV) intramuscular (IM) is not included in this table, because the combination of cabotegravir IM plus RPV IM is a two-drug co-packaged product. Therefore, RPV IM is not expected to be used as a protease inhibitor.
