Predictors of adherence to isoniazid preventive therapy in HIV patients in Ethiopia: A prospective cohort study

摘要

Background: Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) is efficacious in prevention of tuberculosis (TB) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected persons. Yet, patients’ adherence to this strategy is suboptimal, its determinants are largely unknown and data are lacking from prospective cohorts. This study aimed to identify predictors of HIV patients’ adherence to IPT.
