Welcome to www.hiv-druginteractions.org. Since its launch early in 2000, the site has become recognised as an essential resource for researchers and physicians working in the field of HIV infection and anyone with an interest in HIV. In particular, you will find extensive data on potential drug interactions between medications used to treat individuals with HIV infection and background information on the pharmacology of these medications. Details of the Therapeutic Drug Monitoring service offered for these agents are also available.
The site was initially developed and is maintained by the Liverpool HIV Pharmacology Group (LHPG), which has an extensive track record in the investigation of major pharmacological issues in HIV therapy and has research projects that are both laboratory-based and patient-led. Abstracts, posters and presentations arising from LHPG's work can be found on the site.
Additional site features include a glossary of technical terms - directly accessible from all pages within the site - a calendar of forthcoming congresses and an interactive 'frequently asked questions' (FAQ) page. Specific queries can be posted to the FAQ page, where common issues will be presented and discussed. The detailed list of relevant clinical and research conferences, with links to related web sites, makes this site invaluable to professionals with an interest in the treatment of HIV infection.
