Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Results are expressed in mcg/mL

 

Kaletra levels peak approximately 4 hours after administration of

400 mg lopinavir/100 mg ritonavir. The mean peak concentration

is approximately 22% lower for the oral solution than the capsule

formulation under fasting conditions. To enhance bioavailability,

Kaletra oral suspension should be taken with food.

 

HIV-1 infected adults, 400/100 mg twice daily x 3 weeks.

Lopinavir mean steady state trough level:

       7.1 + or - 2.9 mcg/mL

Lopinavir mean peak level:

        9.8 + or - 3.7 mcg/mL

Pediatric lopinavir levels are similar to those obtained in adult patients.
