Managing HIV/AIDS Therapy in Treatment-Experienced Patients:
Regimen Change Request Case Study

Case Presentation: Helena A. Kwakwa, MD, MPH

The patient cited several reasons for wanting to change to FTC/TDF and EFV.

Patient's Reasons for Change
  • Heard at his support group that:
    • Efavirenz and Truvada worked very well together
    • The regimen was very potent
    • It was better than other regimens out there
  • Felt he was on one regimen for too long
  • Thought his current AZT/3TC + NVP regimen was not potent enough or state-of-the-art
