One big question:

Why did Merck sell its stake in DuPont-Merck to DD, leaving DuPont with Sustiva?

As Margie pointed out, there is a study showing Sustiva lowers blood concentrations of Crixivan (but raises concs of Viracept). So the Sustiva-Crix combo may not be viable for Merck.

But will Sustiva replace Crix and Viracept and the other PI's? Obviously, Merck doesn't think so, or wouldn't have sold it.
