"Theoretical models suggest that the degree of hERG blockade given by lopinavir/ritonavir is expected to produce a prolongation of QTc interval of <5 ms. High-grade atrio-ventricular blocks are additional side effects, and multiple drug interactions are possible due to the inhibition of CYP3A."

"Drug induced QT prolongation is usually caused by block of human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) potassium channels, and we showed that lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir caused dose dependent block of HERG channels heterologously expressed in HEK293 cells in vitro."
