Ignificantly longer lives. While HAART has been increasing the lifespan of those infected with HIV, it has also led to an increased prevalence of HAD [32-38]. As the pathology of HAD, like Alzheimer's Disease (AD), is commonly characterized by an increase in the amount of amyloid-beta (Ab) peptide in the brain [39], evidence suggesting microglia modulate the clearance of potentially neurotoxic Ab
Ctedwomen who used NVP-based highly active ART with CD4 counts higher than 350 cells/ .19 ART interruption exposes the HIV patient to risk of developing drug resistance. Proper use of antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1 infection enhances treatment outcomes and immunological recovery.LimitationsThe small sample size of pharmacies which were stocking ARVs is a limitation of this study.
