Do not take NORVIR with certain medicines, as these can cause serious or life-threatening problems such as irregular heartbeat, breathing difficulties, or excessive sleepiness. Do not take NORVIR if you have had a serious allergic reaction to any of its ingredients. Some patients taking NORVIR may develop liver and pancreas problems, which can cause death. Patients may develop large increases in triglycerides and cholesterol, diabetes, high blood sugar, changes in body fat, increased bleeding in people with hemophilia, allergic reactions, and/or changes in heart rhythm. You may develop signs and symptoms of infections that you already have after starting anti-HIV medicines. Please see the Important Safety Information for more details.
Contrast that with the vast majority of over-the-counter supplements, from Vitamin C to Curcumin to whatever -- where the most common side effect is "better overall health."
Ritonavir is also called NORVIR. Here's the "informed consent" info on the website.
