Pharmacokinetics of Nirmatrelvir and Ritonavir in COVID-19 Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease on Intermittent Hemodialysis

Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir is an effective antiviral therapy against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Use is not recommended in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESDR) due to a lack of data. We investigated the pharmacokinetics of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (150 mg/100 mg t...

Descripción
Sumario:Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir is an effective antiviral therapy against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Use is not recommended in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESDR) due to a lack of data. We investigated the pharmacokinetics of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (150 mg/100 mg twice a day) in four patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis. Nirmatrelvir peak concentrations ranged from 4,563 to 7,898 ng/mL and declined after hemodialysis. Concentrations were up to 4-fold higher but still within the range known from patients without ESRD, without accumulation of nirmatrelvir after the end of treatment.
