Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Following oral administration of a 600-mg dose of radiolabeled abacavir, 82.2% of the dose is excreted in urine and 16% of the dose is excreted in feces. The 5-carboxylic acid metabolite, 5-glucuronide metabolite, and unchanged abacavir accounted for 30, 36, and 1.2%, respectively, of recovered radioactivity in urine; unidentified minor metabolites accounted for 15% of recovered radioactivity in urine.
It is not known whether abacavir is distributed into human milk; the drug is distributed into milk in rats.
Abacavir crosses the placenta in rats.
The oral bioavailability of abacavir is high with or without food; the CSF-to-plasma AUC ratio is approximately 0.3.

Metabolism / Metabolites
Abacavir is partially metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase (to form the 5'-carboxylic acid) and glucuronidation (to form the 5'-glucuronide).
The metabolic fate of abacavir has not been fully determined, but the drug is metabolized in the liver. Abacavir is metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase to form the 5-carboxylic acid and by glucuronyltransferase to form the 5-glucuronide; these metabolites do not appear to have any antiviral activity. Any involvement of cytochrome p450 isoenzymes in the metabolism of abacavir is limited.
Intracellularly, abacavir is phosphorylated to abacavir monophosphate by adenosine phosphotransferase; abacavir monophosphate is then converted to carbovir monophosphate in a reaction catalyzed by cytosolic enzymes and then to carbovir triphosphate by cellular kinases. Intracellular (host cell) conversion of abacavir to carbovir triphosphate is necessary for the antiviral activity of the drug. The in vitro intracellular half-life of carbovir triphosphate in CD4+ CEM cells is 3.3 hours.

---

Biological Half-Life
The in vitro intracellular half-life of carbovir triphosphate /SRP: a metabolite of abacavir sulfate,/ in CD4+ CEM cells is 3.3 hours.
The plasma elimination half-life of abacavir following a single oral dose (given as abacavir sulfate) is about 1.5 hours. In HIV-infected children 3 months to 13 years of age who received 8 mg/kg of abacavir every 12 hours (given as an oral solution containing abacavir sulfate), steady-state plasma elimination half-life averaged 1.3 hours and was essentially the same as that reported after a single dose. Following oral administration of a single 300-mg dose of abacavir to an individual with renal failure (glomerular filtration rate less than 10 mL/minute) undergoing peritoneal dialysis, the plasma elimination half-life of the drug was 1.33 hours.

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
Abacavir appears in breastmilk in small quantities. Very little information is available on the safety of its use during breastfeeding. Achieving and maintaining viral suppression with antiretroviral therapy decreases breastfeeding transmission risk to less than 1%, but not zero. Individuals with HIV who are on antiretroviral therapy with a sustained undetectable viral load and who choose to breastfeed should be supported in this decision. If a viral load is not suppressed, banked pasteurized donor milk or formula is recommended.
◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants
An HIV-positive mother took a combination tablet containing dolutegravir 50 mg, abacavir sulfate 600 mg and lamivudine 300 mg (Triumeq) once daily. Her infant was exclusively breastfed for about 30 weeks and partially breastfed for about 20 weeks more. No obvious side effects were noted.
◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk
Gynecomastia has been reported among men receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy. Gynecomastia is unilateral initially, but progresses to bilateral in about half of cases. No alterations in serum prolactin were noted and spontaneous resolution usually occurred within one year, even with continuation of the regimen. Some case reports and in vitro studies have suggested that protease inhibitors might cause hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea in some male patients, although this has been disputed. The relevance of these findings to nursing mothers is not known. The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.

Interactions
Concurrent use /of ethanol/ with abacavir may result in increased concentrations and half-life of abacavir as a result of competition for common metabolic pathways via alcohol dehydrogenase.
Methadone clearance increased 22% in patients stabilized on oral methadone maintenance therapy who started abacavir therapy with 600 mg twice daily; increase in clearance will not be clinically significant in the majority of patients; methadone dosage increase may be required in a small number of patients.

Drug Warnings
A unique and potentially fatal hypersensitivity reaction occurs in 2% to 5% of patients receiving abacavir. Symptoms typically occur within the first six weeks of therapy and include fever, rash, nausea, malaise, and respiratory complaints, in various combinations. Symptoms initially may be mild but increase in severity with continued administration. Discontinuation of the medication usually resolves all signs and symptoms, but rechallenge may cause rapid onset of severe reactions, hypotension, and death. Once an abacavir hypersensitivity reaction is suspected or confirmed, it is recommended that the patient never by rechallenged with abacavir.
The major toxicity associated with abacavir therapy is potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions. In clinical studies, hypersensitivity reactions have been reported in approximately 5% of adult and pediatric patients receiving abacavir in conjunction with lamivudine and zidovudine. Fatalities related to hypersensitivity reactions to abacavir have been reported. Manifestations of hypersensitivity usually are apparent within the first 6 weeks of abacavir therapy, but may occur at any time during therapy. Severe hypersensitivity reactions are likely to recur within hours following rechallenge in patients with a prior history of hypersensitivity to the drug, and these reactions may include life-threatening hypotension and death. The most severe hypersensitivity reactions reported to date have been in individuals who were rechallenged with abacavir after a previous hypersensitivity reaction to the drug. There also have been reports of severe or fatal hypersensitivity reactions occurring after abacavir was reintroduced in patients with no identified history of abacavir hypersensitivity or with unrecognized manifestations of hypersensitivity to the drug. Although these patients had discontinued abacavir for reasons unrelated to hypersensitivity (e.g., interruption in drug supply, discontinuance of abacavir during treatment for other medical conditions), some may have had symptoms present before discontinuance of the drug that were consistent with hypersensitivity but were attributed to other medical conditions (e.g., acute onset respiratory disease, gastroenteritis, adverse reactions to other drugs). Most of the hypersensitivity reactions reported following reintroduction of abacavir in these patients were indistinguishable from hypersensitivity reactions associated with abacavir rechallenge (i.e., short time to onset, increased severity of symptoms, poor outcome including death).Hypersensitivity reactions can occur within hours after abacavir is reintroduced; however, in some cases, these reactions occurred days to weeks following reintroduction of the drug.
Lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis (sometimes fatal) have been reported rarely in patients receiving abacavir and also have been reported in patients receiving dideoxynucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Most reported cases have involved women; obesity and long-term therapy with a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor also may be risk factors. Increased serum concentrations of Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT, GGPT) have been reported in patients receiving abacavir.
Hypersensitivity reactions reported in patients receiving abacavir are characterized by the appearance of manifestations indicating involvement of multiple organ and body systems; these reactions have occurred in association with anaphylaxis, liver failure, renal failure, hypotension, and death. The most frequent manifestations of hypersensitivity reactions to abacavir include fever, rash, fatigue, GI symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, and respiratory symptoms such as pharyngitis, dyspnea, and cough. Other signs and symptoms include malaise, lethargy, myalgia, myolysis, headache, arthralgia, edema, paresthesia, lymphadenopathy, and mucous membrane lesions (e.g., conjunctivitis, mouth ulceration). Respiratory symptoms, including cough, dyspnea, and pharyngitis, have been reported in approximately 20% of patients with hypersensitivity reactions to abacavir. Fatalities have occurred in patients who developed hypersensitivity reactions in which the initial presentation included respiratory symptoms; some patients who experienced fatal hypersensitivity reactions were initially diagnosed as having an acute respiratory disease (pneumonia, bronchitis, flu-like illness). Hypersensitivity reactions can occur without rash; if rash occurs, it usually is maculopapular or urticarial, but may be variable in appearance. Laboratory abnormalities reported in patients experiencing a hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir include lymphopenia and increases in serum concentrations of liver enzymes, creatine kinase (CK, creatine phosphokinase, CPK), or creatinine.
