Tybost How to Take

Tybost (Cobicistat) belongs to the class of medications called pharmacokinetic enhancers. It is used along with atazanavir, an HIV protease inhibitor, to increase the amount of atazanavir available to treat the infection caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV is the virus responsible for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV infection destroys CD4 (T) cells, which are important to the immune system. The immune system helps fight infections.

Tybost (Cobicistat) works by slowing down the enzyme that breaks down atazanavir in the liver, which therefore causes an increased amount, or a "boost" of atazanavir in the body.

Tybost (Cobicistat) does not treat HIV infection directly. Using Tybost (Cobicistat) in combination with atazanavir does not cure AIDS and does not reduce the risk of passing HIV to others through sexual contact or blood contamination. It is used in combination with other anti-HIV medications to slow further growth or reproduction of HIV. It also seems to slow down the destruction of the immune system. This may help to delay the development of problems such as infections related to AIDS or HIV disease.

Tybost (Cobicistat) may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of Tybost (Cobicistat) may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here. As well, some forms of Tybost (Cobicistat) may not be used for all of the conditions discussed here.

Your doctor may have suggested Tybost (Cobicistat) for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking Tybost (Cobicistat), speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking Tybost (Cobicistat) without consulting your doctor.

Do not give Tybost (Cobicistat) to anyone else, even if they have the same symptoms as you do. It can be harmful for people to take Tybost (Cobicistat) if their doctor has not prescribed it.

Immune reconstitution syndrome: Tybost (Cobicistat) may cause immune reconstitution syndrome, where signs and symptoms of inflammation from previous infections appear. These symptoms occur soon after starting anti-HIV medication and can vary. They are thought to occur as a result of the immune system improving and being able to fight infections that have been present without symptoms (such as pneumonia, herpes, hepatitis, or Tuberculosis). Report any new symptoms to your doctor immediately.

Kidney function: Tybost (Cobicistat) may cause a slight decrease in kidney function.
