Consumer:

Formulations of Agenerase (brand of amprenavir) provide high daily doses of vitamin E exceeding the Reference Daily Intake (adults 30 Intl units, pediatrics approximately 10 Intl units). The effects of long-term, high-dose vitamin E administration in humans are unclear. High levels of vitamin E may exacerbate the blood coagulation defect of vitamin K deficiency caused by anticoagulant therapy or malabsorption.
