C. Delavirdine Drug interactions are a major problem with delavirdine, which is metabolized by both CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. Its blood levels are decreased by antacids, ddl. phenytoin. rifampin, and nelfinavir. Conversely, the blood levels of delavirdine are increased by azole anti-fiingals and macrolide antibiotics. Delavirdine increases plasma levels of several benzodiazepines, nifedipine, protea.se inhibitors, quinidine, and warfarin. Delavirdine causes skin rash in up to 20% of patients, and the drug should be avoided in pregnancy since it is teratogenic in animals. 

Clarithromycin (as macrolide antibiotics) has many side effects linked to its consumption, including abnormal taste, diarrhea, headache, indigestion, nausea, stomach pain, and vomiting (Chey and Wong, 2007 Khoshnood et al., 2014). Other common side effects can include headaches, hallucinations, dizziness, and rash. In rare cases, the medication may cause jaundice or kidney problems (Fox et al., 2002).
