CCR5 antagonists maraviroc ↔ etravirine ↓ maraviroc When Etravirine is co-administered with maraviroc in the absence of a potent CYP3A inhibitor (e.g., ritonavir boosted protease inhibitor), the recommended dose of maraviroc is 600 mg twice daily.
Antifungals : itraconazole ketoconazole posaconazole ↑ etravirine ↓ itraconazole ↓ ketoconazole ↔ posaconazole Posaconazole, a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4, may increase plasma concentrations of etravirine.
Therefore, co-administration of Etravirine with drugs that induce or inhibit CYP3A, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 may alter the therapeutic effect or adverse reaction profile of Etravirine (see Table 4 ) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].
