This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the pharmacokinetic outcomes of the interaction between supplements and antiretroviral drugs (ARV) in people living with HIV. The findings showed that coadministration of food and drugs significantly increased the time to reach maximum concentration of ARV and led to increased maximum plasma concentration of certain ARV under fed conditions. However, the area under the curve and terminal half-life were not significantly affected. Evaluating the pharmacokinetic aspects of ARV and supplement interaction is important for clinical practice, and educating patients about potential interactions is recommended.
Because pharmacokinetic changes in antiretroviral drugs (ARV), due to their concurrent administration with food or nutritional products, have become a clinical challenge, it is necessary to monitor the therapeutic efficacy of ARV in people living with the human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH). A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to clarify the pharmacokinetic outcomes of the interaction between supplements such as food, dietary supplements, and nutrients, and ARV. Twenty-four articles in both healthy subjects and PLWH were included in the qualitative analysis, of which five studies were included in the meta-analysis. Food-drug coadministration significantly increased the time to reach maximum concentration (t(max)) (p < 0.00001) of ARV including abacavir, amprenavir, darunavir, emtricitabine, lamivudine, zidovudine, ritonavir, and tenofovir alafenamide. In addition, the increased maximum plasma concentration (C-max) of ARV, such as darunavir, under fed conditions was observed. Area under the curve and terminal half-life were not significantly affected. Evaluating the pharmacokinetic aspects, it is vital to clinically investigate ARV and particular supplement interaction in PLWH. Educating patients about any potential interactions would be one of the effective recommendations during this HIV epidemic.
