Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Dear Physicians of MGIMS, I have a lady patient of mine, who had been diagnosed as HIV positive 5 years ago. About 2 years ago, her CD4 count dipped to 450 and viral count exceeded 1 lakh units, so she was started on Duovir-N (Lamivudine + Zidovudine + Nevirapine). Since then, her viral load has come down progressively and is now around 4500. However, her CD4 is also down to 145. Could anyone tell me if this requires a change in drug regimen or a gap of no-drugs for some period before restarting? Or is this drop in CD4 nothing to worry about, as long as the viral load is down? Kishore Shah 1974 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
