New Merck Med...

 

Merck has a new drug med coming this May.  IDVYNSO is a combination of doravirine & islatravir.  It is not recommended for people currently on some meds, such as lamivudine.   It could lower the med's effectiveness & cause possible toxicity.  It's unclear how long a person would have to off lamivudine before they could start this.  This is the only non-INSTI 2 drug med without tenofovir given orally currently available.  

This could be a great new option for people.  These are newer meds comprising a new combo.  Islatravir is the only med in a new category of NRTTIs.  This a significant step.  

Give this piece a read.

Take care.
