Since their introduction, hepatotoxicity has been associated with the use of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 protease inhibitors (PIs). However, the complexity of the HIV-infected patient and the combinations of medications used to treat HIV complicate the understanding of the independent effects of PIs in the development of drug-induced liver injury (DILI).

متن کاملPolyneuropathy Induced by Hiv and Antiretroviral Therapy: an Overview
The objective of the article is to explain the most common HIV induced neuropathy; distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSP), and neuropathy induced by antiretroviral treatments. The emphases are given specially on mechanism of both the neuropathies. In antiretroviral induced therapy the main focus is on mitochondrial function impaired by nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Here ...

It is estimated that 30% of HIV-infected patients are coinfected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Since the introduction of combined HAART regimens, liver disease has emerged as an important cause of death among people living with HIV infection , especially among HIV-HCV– coinfected patients [1]. Complications of HCV-related liver disease are the leading cause of hospitalization and death among pe...
