Important note: Information in this article was accurate in April 2000. The state of the art may have changed since the publication date.In November 1999, the FDA approved twice-daily dosing of the protease inhibitor Nelfinavir (Viracept). Instead of 750mg three times daily, one can take 1,250mg twice daily. This eliminates that middle-of-the-day dose so often overlooked and dovetails with such other drugs commonly taken twice-daily as Combivir, 3TC, ddI and d4T.
