Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Norvir was launched in Germany, the UK and US for treatment of advanced
HIV in combination with antiretroviral nucleoside analogs in a record 72 days by the
FDA. It is an inhibitor of HIV aspartic protease which is critical in the processing of a
propeptide into the gag, gag-pol gene products and the protease itself. This inhibition
results in the release of non-infectous immature virus particles. It is greater than
500-fold more selective for viral aspartic protease than the human version, has good
oral bioavailability and may increase the bioavailability of other protease inhibitors.
Ritonavir was able to increase the CD4 and CD8 lymphocyte count as well as reduce
viral RNA. It is more potent than saqunavir and comparible in potency to zidovudine
and lamivudine. | [Chemical Properties]

A selective HIV protease inhibitor | [Uses]
Protease inhibitor; antiviral (HIV). | [Uses]
Ritonivir is an HIV protease inhibitor (EC50 = 25 nM) that also inhibits CYP3A4, the primary cytochrome P450 isoform that metabolizes protease inhibitors. Through CYP3A4 inhibition, low doses of ritonivir can reduce the metabolism of concomitantly administered protease inhibitiors, enhancing their bioavailability and efficacy.[Cayman Chemical] | [Definition]
ChEBI: An L-valine derivative that is an antiretroviral drug from the protease inhibitor class used to treat HIV infection and AIDS, it is often used as a fixed-dose combination with another protease inhibitor, lopinavir. Also used in combination
with dasabuvir sodium hydrate, ombitasvir and paritaprevir (under the trade name Viekira Pak) for treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infection as well as cirrhosis of the liver. | [Indications]
Although ritonavir (Norvir) is a potent inhibitor of
HIV-1 and HIV-2 protease, it is not well tolerated in
higher doses. It is mainly used in low doses to increase
blood levels of other protease inhibitors and to extend
their dosing interval. Ritonavir is more commonly associated
with gastrointestinal side effects, altered taste sensation, paresthesias, and hypertriglyceridemia than
are other protease inhibitors. Pancreatitis may occur in
the presence or absence of hypertriglyceridemia. | [Brand name]
Norvir (Abbott). | [Antimicrobial activity]
Ritonavir is active against HIV-1 and, to a lesser extent, HIV-2. | [Acquired resistance]
At antiretroviral doses resistance is associated with the presence
of specific amino acid substitutions in the HIV protease
at positions 82 and 84. Concern about the risk for
selection of ritonavir resistance when used at a subtherapeutic
‘booster’ dose has so far not been borne out by clinical
experience. | [General Description]
Ritonavir belongs to the group of protease inhibitors, which block the part of HIV called protease. Its mode of action involves binding to the protease active site and inhibiting the activity of the enzyme. | [Pharmaceutical Applications]
A synthetic chemical available for oral use as soft capsules
and a liquid formulation. It is now almost exclusively used as
a pharmacokinetic enhancer to ‘boost’ the pharmacokinetic
properties of HIV protease inhibitors in the treatment of
HIV-1 infection in patients over 1 month in age. | [Biological Activity]
Ritonavir is an HIV protease inhibitor. It inhibits recombinant HIV-1 protease by 79% when used at a concentration of 0.5 nM. It inhibits HIV-13B-induced cell death in MT-4 human T cell leukemia cells (EC50 = 25 nM) as well as cell death induced by HIV-1LAI, HIV-2ROD, and HIV-2EHO in human MT-2 cells (IC50s = 0.045, 0.13, and 0.24 μM, respectively). Ritonavir also inhibits the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP3A (IC50 = 0.14 μM). It inhibits CYP-mediated oxidative metabolism of the HIV protease inhibitors saquinavir , indinavir , nelfinavir , and amprenavir in rat and human liver microsomes in a concentration-dependent manner. Ritonavir (10 mg/kg) also prevents decreases in plasma levels of these four compounds in rats. Formulations containing ritonavir have been used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Ritonavir is an HIV protease inhibitor now used frequently as a booster of other protease inhbitors. Ritonavir inhibits cytochrome P450-3A4 (CYP3A4), a liver enzyme that normally metabolizes protease inhibitors. It has also been investigated as a possible anti-cancer agent. | [Mechanism of action]
Because of the strong CYP450-inhibiting effects of ritonavir, the drug has found value when used in
fixed-dosage combinations with other PIs to block their metabolism and act as a booster for these drugs
(lopinavir/ritonavir and tipranavir/ritonavir). In these cases, ritonavir is used in a subtherapeutic dose but
boosts the effectiveness of the coadministered drug. The utilization of ritonavir in a therapeutic dose for
treating HIV infections appears to be decreasing, but its utilization as a booster drug is finding favor. | [Pharmacokinetics]
Oral absorption: Not known/available
Cmax 600 mg twice daily: c. 11.2 mg/L
Cmin 600 mg twice daily: c. 3.7 mg/L
Plasma half-life: c. 3–5 h
Volume of distribution: c. 0.3–0.6 L/kg
Plasma protein binding: c. 97%
Absorption and distribution
Fasting and high-fat meals had no appreciable effect on oral absorption. It penetrates poorly into the CNS. The semen:plasma ratio is <0.04. It is distributed into breast milk.
Metabolism and excretion
Four oxidized metabolites have been identified, the major of which retains antiretroviral activity. Around 11% of the dose is excreted in urine, 4% as unchanged drug. The remainder is found in feces. Metabolites are eliminated primarily via the feces.
No dose adjustment is recommended in mild to moderate hepatic impairment. It should not be given to patients with severe hepatic impairment, nor should it be given as a pharmacokinetic enhancer to patients with decompensated liver disease. | [Clinical Use]
Treatment of HIV infection in adults and children >1 month old (in
combination with other antiretroviral agents) | [Side effects]
Full (antiretroviral) doses are associated with nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea and fatigue in >20% of subjects. The degree to which
ritonavir at low dose is associated with specific adverse events
is uncertain. In HIV-negative healthy volunteers given ‘booster’
doses of 100 mg every 12 h, the concentration of total cholesterol,
low-density cholesterol and triglycerides all increased, and
the concentration of high-density cholesterol concentration fell. | [Drug interactions]
