  11. What happens when NNRTIs are given with statins?
    NNRTIs decrease the concentration of statins therefore may need to be more aggressive with statin doses

    Atazanavir concentration is decreased and should always be boosted with ritonavir if given together
  13. What happens when PIs are given with rifampin or St. John's Wort?

  14. What kind of interaction do PIs have with lovastatin/simvastatin?
    PIs increase the concentration of lovastatin/simvastatin and are contraindicated with PIs
  15. What is the maximum daily dose of omeprazole in patients taking PIs?
    • 20mg per day
    • avoid PPIs in experienced pts
    • always boost with RTV
