Kaletra® is a capsule that contains 2 medicines used to treat infection caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The 2 medicines are called lopinavir and ritonavir.

Kaletra® is available as a capsule that contains 133 mg of lopinavir and 33 mg of ritonavir. Kaletra® is also available as a liquid.
