Long-acting antiretroviral therapy in low-income and middle-income countries: considerations for roll-out

Abstract

LA-ART present promising new alternatives in LMICs. Although they may tackle certain adherence concerns and systemic issues, which impact delivery of services, significant obstacles remain before their widespread implementation in people that require them most, particularly in countries most affected by HIV. We offer best practices from prior experiences and implementation studies for effective coordination of multiple stakeholders, critical for effective rollout.
