Brief Summary: Primary

pharmacokinetics of single dose nevirapine
the effect of single dose carbamazepine on the pk of single dose nevirapine
resistance against nevirapine before and after
follow-up on HIV status newborns
relation between nevirapine levels in cord blood and plasma

Secondary

safety of single dose nevirapine and nevirapinecarbamazepine

Hypothesis

Single dose carbamazepine decreases development of resistance to nevirapine in HIV positive pregnant Tanzanian women by decreasing nevirapine half-life
Detailed Description: Without the use of preventative measures the risk of mother-to-child transmission MTCT of HIV-1 is estimated to vary between 25 and 48 The regimen of single dose of nevirapine to the mother just before delivery and a single dose of nevirapine to the newborn within 24 - 72 hours after birth reduces the risk of MTCT by 50 is affordable in many situations and is therefore standard of care in many African countries like Tanzania Recent studies however have shown that this single dose to the mother can induce the occurrence of nevirapine resistance in a large number of mothers The mechanism of occurrence of nevirapine resistance already after a single dose is most likely related to the long elimination half-life of the drug The subtherapeutic plasma levels present the perfect environment for the occurrence of resistance as the concentrations are subinhibitory for several days
