Efavirenz is one of the most commonly prescribed antiretroviral medications in the world. Several large randomized, controlled trials[RCTs] have demonstrated the superior ability of efavirenz to suppress the HIV virus when used as part of a 3-drug cocktail[2]. The introduction of Atripla in 2006 combined efavirenz and two other agents into a single pill, once-daily formulation. This formulation was more convenient and better tolerated than alternatives, and thus resulted in improved adherence to antiretroviral medications[3]. However, neuropsychiatric side effects associated with efavirenz have been reported to occur in 40-50% of patients and represent one of the limiting factors of this regimen[4].
