- Abstract
The article reports on research which was conducted in an effort to summarize new data in the field of antiretroviral treatment of adult HIV infection and to provide current recommendations for antiretroviral management and monitoring of HIV infection. Researchers found that new data and considerations support initiating therapy before CD4 cell counts decline to less than 350/ul. They also determined that the initial treatment regimen for patients must be individualized, particularly in the presence of comorbid conditions. Their findings on treatment failure are discussed.
