Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Kaletra (combination of lopinavir and ritonavir) capsules and oral solution should be adminstered orally with food. Dosage for therapy-naïve adult patients KALETRA 400/100 mg (3 capsules or 5.0 mL) twice-daily taken with food or KALETRA 800/200 mg (6 capsules or 10 mL) once-daily taken with food. For therapy-experienced patients KALETRA 400/100 mg (3 capsules or 5.0 mL) twice-daily taken with food.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
MT4 cells and wild-type virus stocks were obtained through the AIDS Research and Reference Reagent Program, AIDS Program, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. For drug susceptibility assays, viruses were propagated in CEM cells and titers were determined in MT4 cells. Inhibition of viral replication and compound cytotoxicity were determined in parallel in MT4 cells by a standard colorimetric assay. The EC50s of lopinavir in the absence and presence of 50% human serum were 17 ± 4 and 102 ± 44 nM, respectively.
