With other antiretrovirals in the management of HIV infection. Action Inhibits the action of HIV protease and prevents the cleavage of viral polyproteins. Therapeutic Effects: Increased CD4 cell counts and decreased viral load with subsequent slowed progression of HIV and its sequelae. Pharmacokinetics Absorption: Fosamprenavir is a prodrug. Following oral administration, it is rapidly converted to amprenavir by the gut lining during absorption. Distribution: Penetration into RBCs is concentration dependent. Metabolism and Excretion: Mostly metabolized the liver (CYP3A4 enzyme system). Minimal renal excretion. Half-life: 7.7 hr.

Protease inhibitor– experienced patients— 700 mg twice daily with ritonavir 100 mg twice daily. If efavirenz is added to a once daily regimen using both fosamprenavir and ritonavir, an additional 100 mg of ritonavir (total of 300 mg) should be given.

NURSING IMPLICATIONS Assessment ● Assess patient for change in severity of HIV symptoms and for symptoms of oppor- tunistic infections throughout therapy. ● Assess patient for allergy to sulfonamides. May exhibit cross-sensitivity. ● Assess patient for skin reactions throughout therapy. Reactions may be ● ● ● ● severe and life threatening. Discontinue therapy if severe reactions or moderate rashes with systemic symptoms occur. Lab Test Considerations: Monitor viral load and CD4 cell count regularly during therapy. May causeqserum glucose cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. May causeqAST and ALT levels. May cause neutropenia. Potential Nursing Diagnoses Risk for infection (Indications) Noncompliance (Patient/Family Teaching) Implementation ● Do not confuse Lexiva with Pexeva (paroxetine). ● PO: Tablets may be administered with or without food. Oral suspension should be taken without food in adults and with food in children. Shake suspension vigorously before administering. Refrigeration of suspension may improve taste. If emesis occurs within 30 minutes after dosing, re-dose. 䉷 2015 F.A.

Why was this drug prescribed for your patient? Patient/Family Teaching ● Emphasize the importance of taking fosamprenavir as directed. Advise patient to ● ● ● ● ● ● ● read the Patient Information that comes with the prescription prior to initiation of therapy and with each prescription refill, in case of changes. Fosamprenavir must always be used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. Do not take more than prescribed amount and do not stop taking without consulting health care professional. Take missed doses as soon as remembered if within 4 hrs of scheduled dose. If more than 4 hrs, skip dose, then return to regular schedule. If a dose is skipped, do not double the next doses. Instruct patient that fosamprenavir should not be shared with others. Inform patient that fosamprenavir does not cure AIDS or prevent associated or opportunistic infections. Fosamprenavir does not reduce the risk of transmission of HIV to others through sexual contact or blood contamination. Caution patient to use a condom and to avoid sharing needles or donating blood to prevent spreading the AIDS virus to others. Advise patient that the long-term effects of fosamprenavir are unknown at this time. Advise patient to notify health care professional of all Rx or OTC medications, vitamins, or herbal products being taken and to consult with health care professional before taking other medications because of potentially serious drug interactions. Instruct patient to notify health care professional if nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or rash occurs. Inform patient that redistribution and accumulation of body fat may occur, causing central obesity, dorsocervical fat enlargement (buffalo hump), peripheral wasting, breast enlargement, and cushingoid appearance. The cause and longterm effects are not known. May decrease effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives; advise patient to use a nonhormonal form of contraception during therapy. Emphasize the importance of regular follow-up exams and blood counts to determine progress and monitor for side effects. ⫽ Canadian drug name. ⫽ Genetic Implication.
