Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Body fat increase: May cause an increase in body fat.
• Hemolytic anemia: Acute hemolytic anemia has been reported in association with amprenavir use.
• Hepatic effects: May cause transaminase elevations, hepatitis, and/or exacerbate preexisting hepatic dysfunction; use with caution in patients with underlying hepatic disease, such as hepatitis B or C or cirrhosis.
• Hypersensitivity reactions: Protease inhibitors have been associated with a variety of hypersensitivity events (some severe), including rash, anaphylaxis (rare), angioedema, bronchospasm, erythema multiforme, and/or Stevens-Johnson syndrome (rare). It is generally recommended to discontinue treatment if severe rash or moderate symptoms accompanied by other systemic symptoms occur.
• Immune reconstitution syndrome: Patients may develop immune reconstitution syndrome resulting in the occurrence of an inflammatory response to an indolent or residual opportunistic infection during initial HIV treatment or activation of autoimmune disorders (eg, Graves disease, polymyositis, Guillain-Barré syndrome) later in therapy; further evaluation and treatment may be required.
• Lipid elevations: Increases in total cholesterol and triglycerides have been reported; screening should be done prior to therapy and periodically throughout treatment.
• Nephrolithiasis: Cases have been reported in postmarketing surveillance; temporary or permanent discontinuation of therapy should be considered if symptoms develop.
• Sulfonamide allergy: Use with caution in patients with sulfonamide allergy. In clinical trials, the incidence of rash did not differ appreciably in patients with or without a history of sulfonamide allergy.
Disease-related concerns:
• Diabetes: Changes in glucose tolerance, hyperglycemia, exacerbation of diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, and new-onset diabetes mellitus have been reported in patients receiving protease inhibitors.
• Hemophilia A or B: Use with caution in patients with hemophilia A or B; increased bleeding during protease inhibitor therapy has been reported.
• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution; dosage adjustment required.
Special populations:
• Protease inhibitor-experienced adults: Once-daily fosamprenavir/ritonavir is not recommended in protease inhibitor-experienced adults.
Dosage forms specific issues:
• Polysorbate 80: Some dosage forms may contain polysorbate 80 (also known as Tweens). Hypersensitivity reactions, usually a delayed reaction, have been reported following exposure to pharmaceutical products containing polysorbate 80 in certain individuals (Isaksson 2002; Lucente 2000; Shelley 1995). Thrombocytopenia, ascites, pulmonary deterioration, and renal and hepatic failure have been reported in premature neonates after receiving parenteral products containing polysorbate 80 (Alade 1986; CDC 1984).
• Propylene glycol: Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; large amounts are potentially toxic and have been associated with hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Zar 2007).
Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; in neonates, large amounts of propylene glycol delivered orally, intravenously (eg, >3,000 mg/day), or topically have been associated with potentially fatal toxicities which can include metabolic acidosis, seizures, renal failure, and CNS depression; toxicities have also been reported in children and adults including hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Shehab 2009).

Based on the Health and Humans Services (HHS) perinatal HIV guidelines, fosamprenavir (unboosted or boosted with ritonavir) is not one of the recommended antiretroviral agents for use in patients with HIV infection who are trying to conceive.
Patients with HIV infection not planning to become pregnant may use any available type of contraception, considering possible drug interactions and contraindications of the specific method. Consult drug interactions database for more detailed information specific to use of fosamprenavir and specific contraceptive methods.
Viral suppression sustained below the limits of detection with antiretroviral therapy (ART) and modification of therapy (if needed) is recommended in all patients with HIV infection who are planning a pregnancy. Optimization of the health of the person who will become pregnant and a discussion of the potential risks and benefits of ART during pregnancy is also recommended prior to conception. In most cases, recommendations from the HHS perinatal HIV guidelines (based on data obtained from cisgender women) can be applied to transgender and gender diverse people assigned female sex at birth.
Health care providers caring for couples planning a pregnancy when one or both partners are diagnosed with HIV infection may contact the National Perinatal HIV Hotline (888-448-8765) for clinical consultation (HHS [perinatal] 2021).
Fosamprenavir crosses the human placenta.
Outcome information specific to fosamprenavir use in pregnancy is no longer being reviewed and updated in the Health and Human Services (HHS) perinatal guidelines. The HHS perinatal HIV guidelines do not recommend fosamprenavir (unboosted or boosted with ritonavir) as one of the recommended antiretroviral agents for use during pregnancy and patients who are pregnant should be changed to a preferred or alternative therapy.
Maternal antiretroviral therapy (ART) may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm delivery, stillbirth, low birth weight, and small for GA infants. Actual risks may be influenced by maternal factors such as disease severity, GA at initiation of therapy, and specific ART regimen; therefore, close fetal monitoring is recommended. Because there is clear benefit to appropriate treatment, maternal ART should not be withheld due to concerns for adverse neonatal outcomes. Long-term follow-up is recommended for all infants exposed to antiretroviral medications; children not diagnosed with HIV infection but who were exposed to ART in utero or as a neonate and develop significant organ system abnormalities of unknown etiology (particularly of the CNS or heart) should be evaluated for potential metabolic dysfunction. The risk of hepatic dysfunction and gestational diabetes may be increased in pregnant patients taking protease inhibitors. Consider performing the standard glucose screening test earlier in pregnancy in patients who initiated protease inhibitor therapy prior to conception.
ART is recommended for all pregnant people with HIV infection to maximize their health, maintain the viral load below the limit of detection and reduce the risk of perinatal transmission. Therapy should be individualized following a discussion of the potential risks and benefits of treatment during pregnancy. Patients on fully suppressive regimens prior to pregnancy generally may continue the same regimen considering known pregnancy outcomes and pharmacokinetic data. Monitoring of patients who are pregnant is more frequent than in patients who are not pregnant. ART initiated during pregnancy can be modified after delivery. In most cases, recommendations from the HHS perinatal HIV guidelines (based on data obtained from cisgender women) can be applied to transgender and gender diverse people assigned female sex at birth.
Data collection to monitor pregnancy and infant outcomes following exposure to ART is ongoing. Health care providers are encouraged to enroll patients who are pregnant exposed to antiretroviral medications as early in pregnancy as possible in the Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry (1-800-258-4263 or www.APRegistry.com).
Health care providers caring for pregnant patients with HIV infection and their infants may contact the National Perinatal HIV Hotline (888-448-8765) for clinical consultation (HHS [perinatal] 2021).
It is not known if fosamprenavir is present in breast milk.
Maternal or infant antiretroviral therapy does not completely eliminate the risk of postnatal HIV transmission. In addition, multiclass-resistant virus has been detected in breastfeeding infants despite maternal therapy. In the United States, where formula is usually accessible, affordable, safe, and sustainable, and the risk of infant mortality due to diarrhea and respiratory infections is low, the Health and Human Services perinatal HIV guidelines do not recommend breastfeeding for patients with HIV infection when safer infant feeding options are available.
Information is available for counseling and managing patients with HIV infection who are considering breastfeeding (888-448-8765). In most cases, recommendations from the HHS perinatal HIV guidelines (based on data obtained from cisgender women) can be applied to transgender and gender diverse people assigned female sex at birth (HHS [perinatal] 2021).
Adults should take oral suspension without food; however, pediatric patients should take oral suspension with food. Adult patients may take tablets without regard to food if not taken with ritonavir. Pediatric (HHS [pediatric] 2018) and adult patients should take tablets with food if taken with ritonavir.
Prior to initiation and periodically during therapy, monitor viral load, CD4 count, glucose; triglycerides and cholesterol; liver function tests (in patients with underlying hepatitis B or C)
Fosamprenavir is rapidly and almost completely converted to amprenavir by cellular phosphatases in vivo. Amprenavir binds to the site of HIV-1 protease activity and inhibits cleavage of viral Gag-Pol polyprotein precursors into individual functional proteins required for infectious HIV. This results in the formation of immature, noninfectious viral particles.
Absorption: 63%
Protein-binding: ~90% (to alpha1-acid glycoprotein); decreased in hepatic impairment
Metabolism: Fosamprenavir is rapidly and almost completely converted to amprenavir by cellular phosphatases in gut epithelium; amprenavir is hepatically metabolized via CYP isoenzymes (primarily CYP3A4); glucuronide conjugation of oxidized metabolites also occurs
Bioavailability: Not established; food does not have a significant effect on absorption of tablets. Administration of oral suspension with food reduced maximal drug concentration (Cmax) by 46% and area under the curve (AUC) by 28%.
Half-life elimination: ~7.7 hours (amprenavir)
Time to peak, plasma: 1.5 to 4 hours (median: 2.5 hours)
Excretion: Minimal excretion of unchanged drug in urine (1%) and feces; 75% of dose excreted as metabolites via biliary tract into feces and 14% excreted as metabolites in urine
Hepatic function impairment: AUC of amprenavir was increased by ~22% in mild hepatic impairment, by ~70% in moderate hepatic impairment, and by ~80% in severe hepatic impairment. Protein binding also decreased.
Pediatric: For children 2 to 18 years of age, the AUC is 31.4 to 93.4 mcg•h/mL, Cmax is 5 to 6.07 mcg/mL, and Cmin is 0.454 to 2.69 mcg/mL.
