Abstract

The HIV protease inhibitors have differential effects on CYP isozymes. There is obvious potential for clinically significant drug interactions particularly with ritonavir. Pharmacokinetic drug interaction studies are crucial to gain an overall understanding of the beneficial and potentially harmful effects of this important group of drugs.
