Distinct Effects of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors and Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors on Soluble Biomarkers in Blood and Cerebrospinal Fluid of People With HIV.

Background: Persistent inflammation affects people with HIV (PWH) despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). Selective serotonin and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs, SNRIs), HMG-CoA reductase-inhibitors (statins), and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) have immunomodulant properties. We evaluated the potential impact of these drugs on inflammation and neurodegeneration in PWH.
