Balancing the Interactions: Assessing Antiplatelet and Antiretroviral Therapy Drug-Drug Interactions in People Living with HIV.

The clinical effect of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between antiplatelets and antiretrovirals (ART) on bleeding, thrombosis, and other major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) is unknown. The objective of this retrospective study was to assess the incidence of DDI at P2Y12 inhibitor (P2Y12inh) initiation and the effect of DDI on patient outcomes. Adult people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH; HIV) receiving ART newly initiated on an oral P2Y12inh were included.
