A note from TheBody.com: Since this article was written, the HIV pandemic has changed, as has our understanding of HIV/AIDS and its treatment. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information!

The Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in Pediatric HIV Infection have been revised. The new version includes updated information on:

  • Recommended antiretroviral regimens for initial therapy
  • Nelfinavir, which now meets FDA limits for ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS)

The changes in this revision are highlighted in yellow throughout the text and tables.

The updated guidelines are available for download from the Pediatric Guidelines section of the AIDSinfo Web site. You can also request to receive them by mail or email from the AIDSinfo Order Publications section.
