Case Report of Increased Exposure to Antiretrovirals following Sleeve Gastrectomy.
Bariatric surgery is increasingly performed in morbidly obese HIV patients. Limited data exist regarding antiretroviral drug exposure after bariatric surgery. We report a case of a morbidly obese HIV patient who underwent sleeve gastrectomy. Abacavir, lamivudine, and dolutegravir therapeutic drug monitoring was performed at several time points pre- and postsurgery. Significantly increased levels were measured, particularly for abacavir, whose levels increased ∼12-fold. Several mechanistic explanations for these findings are discussed.
