Adosage And Administration

Adosage And Administration

  • TRIZIVIR can be taken with or without food.

Adults and Adolescent Patients

The recommended oral dose of TRIZIVIR is one tablet twice daily.

TRIZIVIR is not recommended in adolescents who weigh less than 40 kg because it is a fixed-dose tablet and cannot be dose adjusted.

  • patients requiring dosage adjustment such as those with creatinine clearance <50 mL/min.
  • patients with hepatic impairment.
