Welcome
If you or someone you care about is living with HIV, you need to know what HIV drug resistance is, how it's measured and how it affects treatment. The HIV Drug Resistance Resource Center offers a comprehensive overview of drug resistance and tests used to assess it. These tests are essential tools for managing HIV treatment because they help healthcare providers choose the antiviral medications most likely to be effective against an individual's virus over the long term.
The Resource Center also features a self-assessment that can help you determine whether an HIV drug resistance test is right for you, as well as information on checking whether your insurance covers resistance testing. If you want to find out where to get tested for HIV drug resistance, you can use the Find a Clinic tool.
