NRTIs can induce mitochondrial impairment that leads to a number of adverse events including symptomatic lactic acidosis. In the present review we describe the underlying mechanism of NRTI-induced toxicity and the main clinical features of this infrequent but severe emerging complication. We also summarise experimental data and clinical observations that support the use of L-carnitine supplementation to reverse NRTI-induced mitochondrial impairment. Keywords antiretroviral drug critically ill patients HIV lactic acidosis mitochondria Nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors NRTIs are effective antiretroviral therapies for the treatment of HIV-infected patients. Treatment with NRTIs has been associated with mitochondrial toxicity 1 responsible for adverse events including hepatic steatosis 2 myopathy 3 neuropathy 4 myelotoxicity 5 and overproduction of lactate 1 . Symptomatic lactic acidosis following the use of NRTIs was first described by Jolliet and Widmann 6 and by Chatta and colleagues 7 in HIV-infected patients treated with azidothymidine. Several reports since then have established that .
