Pharmacoeconomic aspects of HIV therapy with the use of highly active anti-retroviral therapy fixed dose combination (emtricitabine/rilpivirine/ tenofovir)
AbstractFixed-doze combination of rilpivirine, tenofovir andemtricitabine in highly active antiretroviral therapy makes possible to decrease costs comparing to combinations of rilpivirine with fixed doze tenofovir/emtricitabine and raltegravir with fixed doze tenofovir/emtricitabine. Simultaneously fixed doze combination increases treatment compliance resulting in frequency of hospitalizations decrease and provides an opportunity to increase effectiveness of therapy in the Russian Federation.
