Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Documented HIV positive.
- At least 18 years of age.
- Does not exhibit evidence of acute illness (especially any acute liver disease, except hepatitis C)
- Subject has not been treated for an active opportunistic infection within 30 days of the baseline visit.
- Subject Has a Karnofsky Score greater than or equal to 70.
- Subject does not require and agrees not to take, for the duration of the study, any of the following medications that are contraindicated with Kaletra: astemizole, terfenadine, midazolam, triazolam, cisapride, certain ergot derivatives (ergotamine, dihydroergotamine, ergonovine, and methylergonovine), pimozide, propafenone and flecainide. Rifampin, a potent enzyme inducer, should not be administered with the study medication, because of the possibility of significant decreases in Kaletra concentration during concurrent administration.
- The subject agrees not to take any medication, including over-the-counter medicine, alcohol, recreational drugs or herbal preparations without the knowledge and permission of the principal investigator.
- Subject had laboratory testing within the previous three months and the most recent testing demonstrates all of the following: Hemoglobin\> 8.0 g/dL; absolute neutrophil count \> 750 cells/mL; Platelet count \> 20,000/mL; ALT or AST \</=10 x upper limit of normal (ULN); Creatinine\< 1.5 x ULN; Triglycerides \</=750 mg/dL.
- Subjects have no evidence of grade III or IV adverse event or laboratory abnormality (except for LFTs).
