- Abstract
Fourteen human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–infected patients receiving an atazanavir (ATV)–based antiretroviral regimen developed complicated cholelithiasis. ATV was found in biliary calculi in 8 of 11 cases: infrared spectrometry analysis of calculi revealed that ATV made up a median of 89% (range, 10%–100%) of the total calculus composition. Development and management of ATV-associated cholelithiasis are discussed.
