Target Audience: General Population of People with HIV/AIDS Topic: Treatment Reading Level (SMOG Test): 12th Grade Language: Spanish and English Synopsis/Description: This booklet is designed to inform people living with HIV of their available options in taking combination therapies. It defines the therapies, discusses drug-drug interactions, explains the importance of taking the medication and provides tools to assist patients in medication adherence. Brief Synopsis of NRC Consumer Reviews: Most reviewers agree that this piece is "very thorough, well organized" and can act as a "mini- reference" for people living with HIV. The reviewers said it was helpful because it is "packed with information." One reviewer was satisfied with the piece because it was not just designed for someone newly diagnosed or just initiating therapy. Instead, it provided more detailed information for the consumer who has more experience with their medications and looking for other options. The reviewers also recommended this booklet be distributed by HIV/AIDS Educators, Physicians, Substance Use Counselors and Case Managers. Important Notes: Information on HIV medication is rapidly changing. The information in this material is accurate up to it's date of publication, however the recommended dosing schedule for DDI has changed just recently. This publication still has valuable information in it for providers and consumers; therefore it is still being distributed, but be sure to talk to your physician about the regimen of DDI. Also, check the NAPWA website for a downloadable version of this booklet or for revisions to the booklet.
