Pharmacokinetics of indinavir in Koreans and Caucasians

Scand J Infect Dis. 2004;36(4):307-9. doi: 10.1080/00365540410019697.

Abstract

We evaluated whether the pharmacokinetic parameters of indinavir differ in Koreans and Caucasians. Indinavir was administered orally to 8 healthy Koreans and 4 healthy Caucasians, and plasma indinavir levels were quantified by high performance liquid chromatography. No significant differences were observed in terms of its pharmacokinetic parameters; however, the AUC difference between the 2 groups may be significant for larger sample sizes.
