Summary
This was a feasibility study aimed at elevating protease inhibitors (PI) dosage as a part of active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). After the pharmacokinetics for the currently prescribed PI were determined,patients with a vIQ<1 were eligible for a 50% dose increase for an 8 week time frame after which their vIQ would be reassessed to determine if increasing their PI dosage thereby increasing the bioavaiability would reduce their viral load.
