Resumo |
Here, we report suboptimal efavirenz exposure in an obese patient treated with the standard 600 mg dose. Tripling the dose allowed attainment of therapeutic efavirenz concentrations. We developed an in vitro-in vivo extrapolation model to quantify dose requirements in obese individuals. Obesity represents a risk factor for antiretroviral therapy underdosing. |
