1.
WHAT AGENERASE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Agenerase belongs to a group of antiviral medicines called protease
inhibitors. These medicines are
used for treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
Agenerase is used in protease inhibitor experienced HIV-1 infected
adults and children above the age
of 4 years. Agenerase is prescribed for use in combination with other
antiretroviral medicinal products.
Your doctor will normally direct that Agenerase capsules should be
taken with low doses of ritonavir
to boost its efficacy. The choice of Agenerase will be based on any
resistance testing your doctor may
have carried out and your treatment history.
The benefit of amprenavir boosted with ritonavir has not been
demonstrated in PI naïve patients.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Agenerase, in combination with other antiretroviral agents, is
indicated for the treatment of protease
inhibitor (PI) experienced HIV-1 infected adults and children above
the age of 4 years. Agenerase
capsules should normally be administered with low dose ritonavir as a
pharmacokinetic enhancer of
amprenavir (see sections 4.2 and 4.5). The choice of amprenavir should
be based on individual viral
resistance testing and treatment history of patients (see section
5.1).
The benefit of Agenerase boosted with ritonavir has not been
demonstrated in PI naïve patients (see
section 5.1)
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Therapy should be initiated by a physician experienced in the
management of HIV infection.
The importance of complying with the full recommended dosing regimen
should be stressed to all
patients.
Agenerase is administered orally and can be taken with or without
food.
Agenerase is also available as an oral solution for use in children or
adults unable to swallow capsules.
Amprenavir is 14 % less bioavailable from the oral solution than from
the capsules; therefore,
Agenerase capsules and Agenerase oral solution are not interchangeable
on a milligram per milligram
basis (see section 5.2).
Adults and adolescents of 12 years of age and older (greater than 50
kg body weight):
the
recommended dose of Agenerase capsules is 600 mg twice daily with
ritonavir, 100 mg twice daily, in
combination with other antiretroviral agents.
If Agenerase capsules are used without the boosting effect of
ritonavir high
