Abstract:
Antiretroviral treatment, when taken consistently, can ensure that a person living with HIV can live a long and
healthy life. Yet treatment adherence remains a challenge. Research has shown that mental health struggles can
make taking medication challenging. How big a problem is this in South Africa?. A team of HSRC researchers
explored the extent of mental distress among people living with HIV and its impact on treatment adherence using
the latest national data.
