Protease Inhibitor

Standard Dose

Reyataz: For most treatment-naïve (first time on HIV therapy) and treatment-experienced individuals, the dose is one 300 mg capsule + 100 mg Norvir or 150 mg Tybost once daily with food. See package insert for dosing recommendations during pregnancy, liver or kidney impairment, and with certain drug interactions. Capsules also available in 150 mg and 200 mg doses. Take Norvir or Tybost at the same time as Reyataz. Swallow capsules whole—do not open or mix with anything. Pediatric dose of 50 mg oral powder available based on body weight for children at least 3 months of age weighing at least 11 pounds (5 kg). Oral powder may be used by adults who cannot swallow the capsules.

Evotaz: One tablet once daily with food in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 77 pounds (35 kg). Use with Intelence or Sustiva is not recommended. Use in treatment-experienced people depends on protease inhibitor drug resistance. Not recommended for people with any degree of liver impairment or those who are treatment-experienced and on hemodialysis. Evotaz is not recommended during pregnancy due to substantially lower exposures of atazanavir and cobicistat during pregnancy.

Must be taken in combination with another antiretroviral(s) from a different drug class. Take missed dose as soon as possible, unless it is closer to the time of your next dose. Do not double up on your next dose.
