| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: HIV therapy has evolved rapidly since the 1990s; the arrival of more potent and safer antiretroviral drugs has transformed HIV infection into a chronic condition, which is rarely fatal. Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are frequently used as a third agent - as part of a triple-combination therapy. Side effects and low barriers to resistance have been the major drawbacks of NNRTIs. Rilpivirine (RPV) is a next-generation non-nucleoside analogue, the unique features of which might favor choosing this drug over other NNRTIs. RPV is the latest NNRTI approved for the treatment of HIV infection. Along with its high efficacy and good safety profile, data on pharmacokinetics and drug interactions make RPV particularly attractive. AREAS COVERED: This article aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the main features and data available from recent clinical trials that have tested the performance of RPV. EXPERT OPINION: RPV is a safe and efficacious antiretroviral drug with a better neuropsychiatric and metabolic profile than efavirenz, which is currently the most widely used NNRTI. The availability of a fixed-dose coformulation of RPV with tenofovir/emtricitabine makes the use of RPV even more attractive. The efficacy of RPV in patients with a high baseline viral load remains to be clarified in further trials. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
