For now, however, the rate of neural tube defects with dolutegravir (0.3%) in the Tsepamo cohort is increased over the baseline prevalence (0.1%) and should be viewed with measured caution.

Dolutegravir is a preferred medication for treating HIV infection, but it recently has been linked to a 6- to 9-fold increase in the risk for neural tube defects among babies born to mothers receiving ...

St. Louis, May 25, 2009 — Women of childbearing age can reduce the risk of having a child born with a neural tube defect such as spina bifida by eating enough folate or folic acid. However ...

HIV drug doluteglavir interferes with the binding of folate to its receptor, thus promoting neural tube defects. Folic acid supplementation can mitigate the risk of the medication in an animal model.

“The small risk for neural tube defects that Tsepamo found is just one piece of information regarding the use of dolutegravir in pregnancy, and it has to be weighed against the large projected ...
