Overview

Depression is highly comorbid with HIV/ AIDS and is associated with worse poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), and potentially to long-term immune functioning. Cognitive behavioral therapy may solve these problem.

Description

Depression is highly comorbid with HIV/ AIDS and is associated with worse poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), and potentially to long-term immune functioning. Poor adherence decreases the benefits of ART as well as chances of prolonged survival. An intervention that integrates CBT for depression with a cognitive behavioral approach to adherence counseling (cognitive behavioral therapy intervention for adherence and depression (CBT-AD)) has been found to be effective in improving adherence and reducing depression in PLWH.
