Food and Drug Administration - May 13, 2005
Richard Klein, Kimberly Struble


On May 12, 2005, the FDA approved a new 30-count bottle for Norvir (ritonavir) Soft Gelatin Capsules, 100 mg. Previously only 120-count bottles were available. The new 30-count bottle is more convenient for pharmacy dispensing, and for patients who use Norvir 100 mg once or twice daily in combination with other protease inhibitors.
