Abstract

We report a reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in an human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patient despite a serological profile of past HBV infection with anti-HBs and anti-HBc antibodies, following the interruption of tenofovir/emtricitabine. In HBV–HIV co-infected patients, close monitoring of HBV viral load and serological markers is required for antiretroviral management, particularly after interruption of drugs active for HBV.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
