Delavirdine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) used as part of combination antiretroviral therapy for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Its clinical use has largely diminished in favor of newer agents due to lower efficacy and higher rates of drug interactions; it is no longer recommended in current treatment guidelines and is not widely used or available today.
Pharmacokinetics reported in HIV-infected adult patients after single and multiple oral doses. Main data from clinical trials, studies include both male and female adults with HIV infection.
