Pharmacokinetics of amprenavir given once or twice a day when combined with atazanavir in heavily pre-treated HIV-positive patients.

We studied the pharmacokinetics of amprenavir at doses of 600 mg twice a day or 1200 mg once a day, when co-administered to HIV-positive patients with 400 mg a day of atazanavir without a ritonavir booster. Our preliminary results suggest that amprenavir and atazanavir could be coadministered and that amprenavir could be boosted by atazanavir without the need for ritonavir pharmaco-enhancement.
