ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to investigate the potential inductive effect of nevirapine (NVP) with methadone. Eight patients on the methadone maintenance programme with anti-retroviral therapy because of their infection with HIV, well maintained with methadone and without symptoms of abstinence were studied. All were included in a study of measurement of plasma levels of methadone. Anti-retroviral medication was changed, including NVP, and patients began with symptoms of abstinence 5 to 10 days later. Our results indicate an inductive effect of NVP on the methadone metabolism which caused symptoms of abstinence in all patients, which prompted an increase in the dose and plasma concentration of methadone was lost; patients continued with significantly low plasma levels (p < 0.01) after a therapy mean duration of 6.5 months, with no full recovery.

ABSTRACT

El objetivo de nuestro estudio fue investigar el posible efecto inductor de la nevirapina (NVP) con la metadona. Estudiamos ocho pacientes en programa de mantenimiento con metadona con tratamiento antirretrovírico por su infección por virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana, bien mantenidos con metadona y sin síntomas de abstinencia a opiáceos. Todos estaban incluidos en un estudio de medición de niveles plasmáticos de metadona. Se les cambió la medicación antirretrovírica, incluyendo NVP, y comenzaron con síntomas de abstinencia entre los cinco y los diez días posteriores. Nuestros resultados indican un efecto inductor de la NVP en el metabolismo de la metadona que produjo síntomas de abstinencia en todos ellos, obligando a subir las dosis y perdiendo su concentración plasmática de metadona; continuaron con niveles en plasma significativamente bajos (p < 0,01) tras una media de tratamiento de 6,5 meses, sin llegar a recuperarse (AU)
