Abstract
Given the diversity and increasing life span of HIV-positive people, medical management of the associated complications is becoming more complex. This complexity is compounded by the growing number of drugs available to treat people with HIV/AIDS. Information regarding the adverse reactions and/or interactions of these drugs in combination is limited. The purpose of this paper is to review what is currently known about synergistic, antagonistic, and potentially toxic interactions. Included is a table containing side effects and interactions among drugs commonly used to treat clients with HIV/AIDS.Keywords
