According to the results of the discussions, it was decided to update the treatment guidelines which are expected to enter into force in 2018. Thus, the 1-st line of HIV treatment will include the latest innovative drugs such as Dolutegravir. Raltegravir has been included in treatment regimens for adults and children. Efavirenz drug was excluded from the treatment regimens for children and transferred into an alternative regimen for adult patients. Moreover, the protocols will contain a new section regulating the use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).
The event was attended by representatives of the ECUO PLWH, Lyudmila Untura and Igor Kilchevsky.
