Does an increase in nevirapine plasma levels cause complete virologic suppression in patients experiencing early virologic failure?
An increase of one pill of NVP per day led to a significant rise in NVP plasma levels. A greater virologic response was noticed among participants with higher NVP plasma levels. Major resistance mutations that conferred resistance to NVP were recognized in all participants who failed to regain virological suppression after increasing NVP dose.
Epidural ketamine 30 mg reduces post hysterectomy pain as evidenced by prolongation of time to first analgesia request and reduction in postoperative epidural PCA consumption. This effect is manifest whether ketamine is given before induction or 20 min after skin incision.
