Treatment guidelines update
« on: March 30, 2012, 11:02:19 am »
On the heels of a report saying that, overall, long-term ARV therapy is safe, comes this from the NIH:

The following appears at the beginning of the March 27, 2012, revision to the Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in HIV-1-Infected Adults and Adolescents.
Initiating Antiretroviral Therapy in Treatment-Naive Patients
The Panel updated its recommendations on initiation of ART in treatment-naive patients. The changes are primarily based on increasing evidence showing the harmful impact of ongoing HIV replication on AIDS and non-AIDS disease progression. In addition, the updated recommendations reflect emerging data showing the benefit of effective ART in preventing secondary transmission of HIV. . . . .

ART is recommended for all HIV-infected individuals.

A most interesting turn of events.

HUGS,
