Trade Name
Usual DoseaDosing in Adults With Renal InsufficiencyDosing in Adults With Hepatic Impairment

Recommendations for FDCs based on CrCl level are outlined in the table below.

NRTIs
Abacavir
(ABC)

ABC 300 mg PO twice daily

or

ABC 600 mg PO once daily

No dose adjustment necessary.

Child-Pugh Class A: ABC 200 mg PO twice daily (use oral solution)

Child-Pugh Class B or C: Contraindicated

Abacavir/Lamivudine
(ABC/3TC)
One tablet PO once daily

Not FDA recommended if CrCl <30 mL/min due to the 3TC component.

Note: There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against the use of full-dose 3TC in people with CrCl <30 mL/min. Some Panel members use full-dose 3TC to allow people to remain on the FDC product. See the 3TC entry for more information.

Child-Pugh Class A: Patients with mild hepatic impairment require a dose reduction of ABC. Use the individual drugs instead of the FDC tablet in these patients.

Child-Pugh Class B or C: Contraindicated due to the ABC component

Emtricitabine
(FTC)
Emtriva

FTC 200-mg oral capsule once daily

or

FTC 240-mg (24-mL) oral solution once daily

Note: There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against the use of full-dose, daily FTC in people with CrCl <30 mL/min who are not on HD. To allow people to remain on certain TAF-containing FDC products, some Panel members use full-dose, daily FTC in people with CrCl 15–‍29 mL/min who are not on HD.

Note: PK and safety data are limited on the use of 3TC doses higher than those recommended by the FDA in people with CrCl <30 mL/min. Clinicians may consider using the nearest available tablet strength (100 mg or 150 mg), as outlined in the “Alternative Dose” column (BIII) (see rationaled). There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against the use of full-‍dose 3TC in people with CrCl <30 mL/min. Some Panel members use full-dose 3TC to allow people to remain on certain ABC and/or DTG-containing FDC products.

Child-Pugh Class A or B: No dose adjustment

Child-Pugh Class C: No recommendation

a Refer to Appendix B, Tables 1–10 for additional dosing information.

b The prescribing information for FTC (Emtriva) recommends adjusted doses for people with CrCl 30–49 mL/min and people on hemodialysis. However, the prescribing information for several FDC products that contain emtricitabine (including Descovy, Biktarvy, Genvoya, and Odefsey) recommends that the standard dose (emtricitabine 200 mg) can be given once daily in these patients (i.e., on the days of hemodialysis, administer standard dose after completion of dialysis). The recommendation in this table incorporates the dosing guidance from the FDC products.

c The prescribing information for 3TC recommends dosage adjustment from 300 mg once daily to 150 mg once daily for people with CrCl 30–49 mL/min. However, the prescribing information for several FDC products that contain 3TC (including ABC plus 3TC, Dovato, and Triumeq) recommends no dose adjustment for CrCl 30–49 mL/min. The recommendation in this table incorporates the dosing guidance from the FDC products.

d Use of 3TC doses higher than those recommended by the FDA for people with CrCl <30 mL/min has been reported in clinical practice 1-4 and endorsed in the Guidelines for Chronic Kidney Disease in People With HIV for many years 5; limited published literature has supported the safety of this practice 2,3. 3TC has a wide therapeutic index with no established correlation between elevated concentrations and AEs. Serious AEs, such as lactic acidosis and severe hematologic toxicities, have been reported in rare cases; however, these effects typically occurred in the setting of combination use with older NRTIs (such as didanosine, stavudine, zidovudine). Clinicians may consider using the nearest available tablet strength (100 mg or 150 mg) to avoid the need for 3TC oral solution, thereby simplifying ARV regimens and facilitating adherence (BIII). See the Alternative Dose column in 3TC table entry. There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against the use of full-dose 3TC in people with CrCl <30 mL/min. Some Panel members use full-dose 3TC to allow people to remain on certain FDC products.
