Watch for Supplements That can Derail HIV Therapy

October 2015

More patients will start antiretrovirals as soon as they're diagnosed with HIV...instead of after their immune system declines.

Watch for look-alike, sound-alike meds. Norvir can be mistaken for Norvasc...Isentress for Intelence...and Tivicay for Truvada.
