Clin Infect Dis. 2003 Feb 1;36(3):373-7. doi: 10.1086/345993. Epub 2003 Jan 14.

Abstract

Interest in monitoring antiretroviral drug concentrations in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients has gained considerable momentum in recent years. We present a potential method for integrating pharmacokinetic and phenotypic information that will assist clinicians in choosing optimal treatment regimens for their patients and that will provide an approach for the interpretation of antiretroviral plasma drug concentrations.
