Pharmacology
DOVATO is a fixed-dose combination of dolutegravir, an HIV-1 integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) that blocks retroviral DNA integration by binding to the integrase active site, and lamivudine, a nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that inhibits reverse transcriptase via DNA chain termination after incorporation of the nucleotide analogue.
STRIBILD is a fixed-dose combination of elvitegravir (an integrase strand transfer inhibitor), cobicistat (a CYP3A inhibitor that boosts elvitegravir levels), emtricitabine (a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor), and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor).
