The following table summarizes recent additions to the HIV InSite Database of Antiretroviral Drug Interactions. For a full description of the updates, including references to the studies from which the data were derived, go to the database, click on a specific drug name, and search for the interacting agent. Note: Interactions between elvitegravir/cobicistat and several other medications have been identified. These interactions are compiled as a separate table at the bottom of this page.
