hi, Drug interaction is unavoidable in patients living with this virus because of the frequent opprotunistic infections involved. This might make it very difficult for the doctors to monitor the situation. Can the reserchers come up with a patient tool on which drugs to interact with the antiretrovirals then mainstream the whole process during the counselling and adherence session.This will assist all the smart and strong patients and finally have a longer life expectancy Jecinta.

I nearly died as a result of an Ambian Norvir interaction several years ago. I switched to Ambien CR and the Norvir kept the levels elevated. I became so depressed that I was suicidal, I missed work, it was horrible. When we finally figured it out my phamacy sent a notification to all the Dr.'s in our area that perscribed Norvir and other pharmacies. I now consider my relationship with my pharmacist as important as my relationship with that of my Dr.

my doctor, only one in the entire valley, has little time for drug nteraction checks. think this is the case alot of places. I use check my meds on here and print it out to take to him when i have a serious question. doctors don't seem to mind reading something that is actually in their language.
