Antiretroviral Therapy in Tropical Climates

Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) is a medical treatment for people living with HIV. It involves taking a combination of medications that help control the virus, allowing individuals to lead healthier lives. In tropical climates, consistent access to ART can be challenging due to factors like limited healthcare resources and transportation issues. However, maintaining treatment adherence is crucial for reducing virus levels, preventing transmission, and improving overall health. Local healthcare systems often adapt to meet these challenges, ensuring that people in tropical regions can receive the medications they need to manage HIV effectively.
