1. What Darunavir Synoptis is and what it is used for

What is Darunavir Synoptis?
Darunavir Synoptis contains the active substance darunavir. Darunavir Synoptis is an antiretroviral medicine used in the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
It belongs to a group of medicines called protease inhibitors. Darunavir Synoptis works by reducing the amount of HIV in the body. This helps the immune system and reduces the risk of developing HIV-related illnesses.

What is it used for?
Darunavir Synoptis is used to treat HIV-infected adults and children above 3 years of age and weighing more than 15 kg, who have been previously treated with other antiretroviral medicines.
Darunavir Synoptis must be taken in combination with a low dose of ritonavir and other anti-HIV medicines. Your doctor will decide the most appropriate combination of medicines for you.

2. Important information before using Darunavir Synoptis

When not to use Darunavir Synoptis

  • if the patient is allergic to darunavir, or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6), or to ritonavir,
  • if the patient has severe liver function disorders. In case of doubt regarding liver-related conditions and their nature, consult a doctor. Additional tests may be necessary.

Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Darunavir Synoptis, discuss this with your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.
Darunavir Synoptis will not cure HIV infection. Patients may still transmit HIV virus while taking this medicine, although effective antiretroviral therapy reduces this risk. Patients should discuss with their doctor the precautions necessary to avoid infecting others.
Patients taking Darunavir Synoptis remain at risk of developing infections or other HIV-related diseases; therefore, regular contact with a doctor is necessary.
Skin rash may occur in patients taking Darunavir Synoptis. Rarely, it may become severe or potentially life-threatening. If a rash occurs, contact your doctor.
Skin rash (usually mild or moderately severe) may occur more frequently in patients taking Darunavir Synoptis and raltegravir (for treatment of HIV infection) together than in patients taking either drug alone.
When to inform the doctor about health status BEFORE and DURING treatment
After reviewing the following points, the patient should inform the doctor if any of them apply:

  • Inform the doctor if the patient has previously had liver disease, including hepatitis B or C virus infection. The doctor will assess the severity of the disease before deciding whether Darunavir Synoptis can be taken.
  • Inform the doctor if the patient has diabetes. Darunavir Synoptis may increase blood sugar levels.
  • Inform the doctor immediately if the patient notices signs of infection (e.g., swollen lymph nodes, fever). In some patients with advanced HIV infection and a history of opportunistic infections, symptoms and signs of inflammation related to previous infections may appear soon after starting antiretroviral therapy. These symptoms are believed to be due to an enhanced immune response, enabling the body to fight previously asymptomatic infections.
  • In addition to opportunistic infections, autoimmune disorders (diseases occurring when the immune system attacks healthy body tissues) may also occur after starting antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection. Autoimmune disorders may appear several months after starting treatment. If signs of infection or other symptoms such as muscle weakness, weakness starting in hands and feet and progressing toward the trunk, palpitations, tremor, or hyperactivity are observed, contact the doctor immediately to initiate necessary treatment.
  • Inform the doctor if the patient has haemophilia. Darunavir Synoptis may increase the risk of bleeding.
  • Inform the doctor about sulphonamide allergy (used, for example, in treating certain infections).
  • Inform the doctor about musculoskeletal disorders. In some patients receiving combination antiretroviral therapy, bone disease called osteonecrosis (bone tissue death due to impaired blood supply) may develop. Risk factors for developing this disease include: long duration of combination antiretroviral therapy, corticosteroid use, alcohol consumption, profound immunosuppression, increased body mass index, and others. Symptoms of osteonecrosis include: joint pain and stiffness (especially in hips, knees, or shoulders) and difficulty moving. Inform the doctor if any of these symptoms occur.

Elderly patients
Darunavir Synoptis has been used in only a small number of patients aged 65 years or older. If the patient belongs to this age group, they should consult their doctor to discuss the possibility of taking this medicine.
Children
Do not use Darunavir Synoptis in children under 3 years of age or weighing less than 15 kilograms.
Darunavir Synoptis and other medicines
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines currently or recently taken by the patient.
Some medicines must not be combined with Darunavir Synoptis. A list is provided in the section "Do not use Darunavir Synoptis with the following medicines".
In most cases, Darunavir Synoptis can be combined with antiretroviral drugs belonging to other classes [e.g., NRTIs (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors), NNRTIs (non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors), CCR5 antagonists, and FIs (fusion inhibitors)]. Studies on the concomitant use of Darunavir Synoptis and ritonavir with all PIs (protease inhibitors) have not been conducted, and it must not be used in combination with other protease inhibitors. In some cases, dosage adjustment of other medicines may be necessary. Therefore, always inform the doctor about the use of other antiretroviral drugs and strictly follow the doctor's instructions regarding concomitant use of other medicines.
The effectiveness of Darunavir Synoptis may be reduced when taken simultaneously with any of the following products. Inform the doctor if taking:

  • phenobarbital, phenytoin (anticonvulsants);
  • dexamethasone (corticosteroid);
  • efavirenz (HIV-1 infection);
  • boceprevir (hepatitis C virus infection);
  • rifapentine, rifabutin (antituberculosis drugs);
  • saxagliptin (HIV-1 infection).

  • clarithromycin (antibiotic);

  • cyclosporine, everolimus, tacrolimus, sirolimus (immunosuppressive drugs), due to the possibility of increased therapeutic effect and adverse reactions of these drugs – the doctor may recommend additional tests;

  • corticosteroids including betamethasone, budesonide, fluticasone, mometasone, prednisone, triamcinolone. These drugs are used to treat allergies, asthma, inflammatory bowel diseases, eye, joint, and muscle inflammation, and other inflammatory conditions. If no alternative drugs are available, use of these drugs is possible only after doctor's evaluation and under strict monitoring for corticosteroid adverse effects by the treating physician;

  • buprenorphine/naloxone (medicines used in opioid addiction treatment);

  • salmeterol (medicine used in asthma treatment);

  • fentanyl, oxycodone, tramadol (painkillers);

  • fesoterodine, solifenacin (in urological disorders treatment).

Concomitant administration of other medicines with Darunavir Synoptis may affect their therapeutic effect and adverse reactions. Therefore, dosage of other medicines may require adjustment.
Inform the doctor if taking:

  • alfentanil (injections, strong and short-acting painkiller used in surgical procedures);
  • digoxin (medicine used in therapy of certain heart diseases);
  • clarithromycin (antibiotic);
  • itraconazole, isavuconazole, fluconazole, posaconazole, clotrimazole (antifungal medicines). Voriconazole may be taken only after consultation with the doctor;

4. Possible adverse reactions

During treatment for HIV infection, increases in body weight, as well as blood lipid and glucose levels, may occur. This is partly related to improved health and lifestyle, and in the case of blood lipid levels, sometimes to the antiretroviral therapy itself. Your doctor will order blood tests to monitor these changes.

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause adverse reactions, although not everybody experiences them.
If any of the adverse reactions described occur, you should inform your doctor.

Hepatic complications have been reported, which in rare cases may be severe. Your doctor will order blood tests before starting treatment with Darunavir Synoptis.
