IN UNDIAGNOSED EARLY HIV-1 INFECTION See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning.

? Severe acute exacerbations of hepatitis B (HBV) have been reported in HBV-infected individuals who have discontinued TRUVADA. Hepatic function should be monitored closely in these individuals who discontinue TRUVADA. If appropriate anti-hepatitis B therapy may be warranted. (5.1)

? TRUVADA used for HIV-1 PrEP must only be prescribed to individuals confirmed to be HIV-negative immediately prior to initiating and at least every 3 months during use. Drugresistant HIV-1 variants have been identified with the use of TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP following undetected acute HIV-1 infection. Do not initiate TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP if signs or symptoms of acute HIV infection are present unless negative infection status is confirmed. (5.2)

-------------------------------INDICATIONS AND USAGE------------------------HIV-1 Treatment (1.1) TRUVADA is a two-drug combination of emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), both HIV-1 nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and is indicated: ? in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of

HIV-1 infection in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 17 kg. HIV-1 PrEP (1.2): ? TRUVADA is indicated in at-risk adults and adolescents weighing at least 35 kg for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to reduce the risk of sexually acquired HIV-1 infection. Individuals must have a negative HIV-1 test immediately prior to initiating TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP.

------------------------DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION---------------------? Testing: Prior to or when initiating TRUVADA test for hepatitis B

virus infection. Prior to initiation and during use of TRUVADA, on a clinically appropriate schedule, assess serum creatinine, estimated creatinine clearance, urine glucose, and urine protein in all individuals. In individuals with chronic kidney disease, also assess serum phosphorus. (2.1) ? HIV-1 Screening: Screen all individuals for HIV-1 infection immediately prior to initiating TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP and at least once every 3 months while taking TRUVADA, and upon diagnosis of any other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). (2.2) Treatment of HIV-1 Infection ? Recommended dosage in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 35 kg: One TRUVADA tablet (containing 200 mg of FTC and 300 mg of TDF) once daily taken orally with or without food. (2.3) ? Recommended dosage in pediatric patients weighing at least 17 kg: One TRUVADA low-strength tablet (100 mg/150 mg, 133 mg/200 mg, or 167 mg/250 mg based on body weight) once daily taken orally with or without food. (2.4) ? Recommended dosage in renally impaired HIV-1 infected adult patients: o Creatinine clearance (CrCl) 30-49 mL/min: 1 tablet every 48

hours. (2.6) o CrCl below 30 mL/min or hemodialysis: TRUVADA is not

recommended. (2.6) HIV-1 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) ? Recommended dosage in HIV-1 uninfected adults and adolescents

weighing at least 35 kg: One TRUVADA tablet (containing 200 mg

? of FTC and 300 mg of TDF) once daily taken orally with or without food. (2.5)

? Recommended dosage in renally impaired HIV-uninfected individuals: TRUVADA is not recommended in HIV-uninfected individuals if CrCl is below 60 mL/min. (2.6)

-----------------------DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS-------------------Tablets: 200 mg/300 mg, 167 mg/250 mg, 133 mg/200 mg, and 100 mg/150 mg of emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, respectively. (3)

--------------------------------CONTRAINDICATIONS-----------------------------TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP is contraindicated in individuals with unknown or positive HIV-1 status. (4)

-------------------------WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS---------------------? Comprehensive management to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV-1

when TRUVADA is used for HIV-1 PrEP: Use as part of a comprehensive prevention strategy including other prevention measures; strictly adhere to dosing schedule. (5.2) ? Management to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV-1 drug resistance when TRUVADA is used for HIV-1 PrEP: refer to full prescribing information for additional detail. (5.2) ? New onset or worsening renal impairment: Can include acute renal failure and Fanconi syndrome. Avoid administering TRUVADA with concurrent or recent use of nephrotoxic drugs. (5.3) ? Immune reconstitution syndrome during treatment of HIV-1 infection: May necessitate further evaluation and treatment. (5.4) ? Decreases in bone mineral density (BMD): Consider assessment of BMD in individuals with a history of pathologic fracture or other risk factors for osteoporosis or bone loss. (5.5) ? Lactic acidosis/severe hepatomegaly with steatosis: Discontinue TRUVADA in individuals who develop symptoms or laboratory findings suggestive of lactic acidosis or pronounced hepatotoxicity. (5.6)

--------------------------------ADVERSE REACTIONS----------------------------? In HIV-1 infected patients, the most common adverse reactions

(incidence greater than or equal to 10%) are diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, headache, dizziness, depression, insomnia, abnormal dreams, and rash. (6.1) ? In HIV-1 uninfected adults in PrEP trials, adverse reactions that were reported by more than 2% of TRUVADA participants and more frequently than by placebo participants were headache, abdominal pain, and weight decreased. (6.1)

To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Gilead Sciences, Inc. at 1-800-445-3235 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or medwatch

---------------------------------DRUG INTERACTIONS----------------------------? Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate increases didanosine concentrations.

Dose reduction and close monitoring for didanosine toxicity are warranted. (7.2) ? Coadministration decreases atazanavir concentrations. When coadministered with TRUVADA, use atazanavir given with ritonavir. (7.2) ? Coadministration of TRUVADA with certain HIV-1 protease inhibitors or certain drugs to treat HCV increases tenofovir concentrations. Monitor for evidence of tenofovir toxicity. (7.2) ? Consult Full Prescribing Information prior to and during treatment for important drug interactions. (7.2)

---------------------------USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS-------------------Lactation: Mothers infected with HIV-1 or suspected of having acquired HIV-1 infection should be instructed not to breastfeed due to the potential for HIV transmission. (8.2)

WARNING: POSTTREATMENT ACUTE EXACERBATION OF HEPATITIS B and RISK OF DRUG RESISTANCE WITH USE OF TRUVADA FOR HIV-1 PRE-

EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS (PrEP) IN UNDIAGNOSED EARLY HIV-1 INFECTION

Severe acute exacerbations of hepatitis B (HBV) have been reported in HBVinfected individuals who have discontinued TRUVADA. Hepatic function should be monitored closely with both clinical and laboratory follow-up for at least several months in individuals who are infected with HBV and discontinue TRUVADA. If appropriate, anti-hepatitis B therapy may be warranted [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

TRUVADA used for HIV-1 PrEP must only be prescribed to individuals confirmed to be HIV-negative immediately prior to initiating and at least every 3 months during use. Drug-resistant HIV-1 variants have been identified with use of TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP following undetected acute HIV-1 infection. Do not initiate TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP if signs or symptoms of acute HIV-1 infection are present unless negative infection status is confirmed [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE

1.1 Treatment of HIV-1 Infection

TRUVADA is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 17 kg [see Clinical Studies (14)].

1.2 HIV-1 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)

TRUVADA is indicated in at-risk adults and adolescents weighing at least 35 kg for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to reduce the risk of sexually acquired HIV-1 infection. Individuals must have a negative HIV-1 test immediately prior to initiating TRUVADA for HIV-1 PrEP [see Dosage and Administration (2.2), Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

2.1 Testing Prior to Initiation of TRUVADA for Treatment of HIV-1 Infection or for HIV-1 PrEP

Prior to or when initiating TRUVADA, test individuals for hepatitis B virus infection [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
