In patients who have not lastly been treated with a protease inhibitor, fosamprenavir can be taken once daily combined with ritonavir, or twice daily with or without ritonavir. In patients who are treatment-experienced, it should be taken twice daily with ritonavir. If coadministered with ritonavir and efavirenz, the ritonavir dosage should be increased.
