Steady–state nevirapine lamivudine and stavudine levels in Malawian HIV-infected children on antiretroviral therapy using split Triomune 30® tablets

摘要

BackgroundChildren remain under-represented in national antiretroviral treatment (ART) programmes in settings with limited resources and high HIV prevalence. In Malawi, an increasing number of HIV-infected children have been started on ART with split tablets of an adult fixed-dose combination drug in the past few years. In 2006, the national paediatric ART regime was changed from Triomune 40® (T40) to Triomune 30® (T30).
