dc.description.abstract | Antiretrovirals have been associated with serious adverse drug reactions.
Several factors have been suggested as independent risk factors for their development.
Identification of these factors may help in prevention and management of the adverse
drug reactions.Current standard regimens in resource-limited countries are associated
with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions. Almost half of adverse reactions
are managed by addition of a non-anti-retroviral drug alone but 41% necessitated a
change of anti-retrovirals. | en |
