Abstract
We measured plasma concentration of efavirenz (EFV) in
16 HIV-infected Indian children receiving antiretroviral
treatment at Government ART centres. The mean 12-hour
concentration was 2.39 μg/mL (range: 0.72- 7.82 μg/mL).
The majority of children treated with generic EFV at
currently recommended doses had blood levels within the
therapeutic range.
