Treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults, adolescents, and pediatric patients ≥2 years of age; usually used in conjunction with 2 HIV nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs).

Experts state nelfinavir not recommended for initial treatment regimens in antiretroviral-naive adults and adolescents because of inferior virologic efficacy and high incidence of diarrhea.

For initial treatment in antiretroviral-naive pediatric patients, experts state nelfinavir in conjunction with 2 NRTIs can be considered in children ≥2 years of age, but only in special circumstances when preferred or alternative regimens cannot be used. Safety and efficacy not established in those <2 years of age, and not recommended in this age group because of insufficient data.
