Pharmacotherapy considerations in transgender individuals living with human immunodeficiency virus.

ABSTRACT

Pharmacotherapy considerations are often a concern for transgender individuals who are living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) due to concerns for drug-drug interactions between their hormone and antiretroviral therapies. Many of the first-line therapies offered to patients for the management of HIV have reduced concerns for safety, resistance, and drug-drug interactions. In this review, we highlight common medications and important considerations for caring for transgender people living with HIV.
