Brief Summary
Primary
- pharmacokinetics of single dose nevirapine
- the effect of single dose carbamazepine on the pk of single dose nevirapine
- resistance against nevirapine before and after.
- follow-up on HIV status newborns
- relation between nevirapine levels in cord blood and plasma Secondary \* safety of single dose nevirapine and nevirapine/carbamazepine Hypothesis: Single dose carbamazepine decreases development of resistance to nevirapine in HIV positive pregnant Tanzanian women by decreasing nevirapine half-life.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Cord blood will be taken less than 30 minutes after delivery
0 - 30 min after delivery
Blood samples from mother will be taken less than 30 minutes after delivery to measure viral load and CD4 count.
0 - 30 min after delivery
Blood samples will be drawn from mother and child at week 1 (day 6-8), week 2 (day 13-15) and week 3 (day 20-22)
day 6 - 22 after delivery
From all samples plasma nevirapine and if applicable carbamazepine levels will be determined in women and newborns.
0 30 min after delivery - week 3 after delivery
Study Arms (2)
Carbamazepine
ACTIVE COMPARATORAn oral dose of 400mg Carbamazepine is added to the 200mg oral dose Nevirapine intake prior delivery
Nevirapine
PLACEBO COMPARATORStandard therapy of 200mg Nevirapine oral prior to delivery
Interventions
Carbamazepine 400mg and Nevirapine 200mg are taken just before delivery during labor.
