HealthTrust presents…“Advancing HIV Care: New Agents, Personalized Selection & Prophylactic Strategies”
Recent advancements in HIV treatment and prevention, such as the introduction of new antiretroviral therapies and updates in PrEP and PEP guidelines, have made it important for pharmacists to stay informed to optimize patient care. Given ongoing challenges like medication adherence, drug interactions and access to care, it’s crucial for pharmacists to engage in continued education to provide the most up-todate, evidence-based care in HIV management. This program will provide pharmacists with updated knowledge of HIV treatment and prevention to optimize medication therapy and improve patient outcomes. The presenter will share methods to navigate complex drug regimens, and address challenges such as adherence and health disparities. By utilizing this information, pharmacists will be better equipped to care for diverse patients with HIV.
Learning Objectives for Pharmacists & Nurses | At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
- Recall recent advancements in antiretroviral therapy (ART) and updates to human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment guidelines. - Identify an appropriate antiretroviral regimen for patients with HIV based on individual patient factors such as co-morbidities, drug resistance and potential
drug interactions. - Recognize evidence-based monitoring parameters for patients with HIV to effectively adjust opportunistic infection prophylaxis regimens.
