摘要: Objective: Protease inhibitors (PIs) exhibit considerable interpatient pharmacokinetic variability in plasma trough concentrations. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is occasionally used to guide chronic dosing achieve target concentrations, but its clinical success assumes minimal intrasubject variability. Therefore, our primary objective was evaluate intrapatient atazanavir (ATV) concentrations HIV-1-infected patients. Design/Methods: In a single-site, prospective, cohort study, patients on with or without ritonavir (ATV/r ATV) for 2 clinic visits were enrolled. Adherence and time since last dose (TSLD) verified at each visit. ATV assayed high-performance liquid chromatography. Intra- variation evaluated using the median intraindividual percentage coefficient of (ICV). Results: The mean 24-hour first second visit ATV/r group (n = 10) 598 (CV 84%) 5...
