Cobicistat is an inhibitor of human cytochrome P450 3A enzymes (CYP) with no antiviral activity. Cobicistat is used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection, as an alternative to ritonavir, to increase the half-life of antiviral medications (von Hentig, 2016). Cobicistat acts as a booster by selectively inhibiting the hepatic degradation of the drugs, for example, in the pharmacological regime against HIV-1, which often includes protease inhibitors, such as, darunavir, atazanavir, and lopinavir, or the integrase inhibitor elvitegravir (Deeks, 2014).
