TREATMENT PREPAREDNESS
I. ANTIRETROVIRALS
intro
3 different types of fact sheets for each of the following four medications:
- AZT (retrovir), Nevirapine (Viramune), Nelfinavir (Viracept), 3TC (Epivir)
- Dosing combination and schedule sheet for all currently available medications
Why we've chosen these materials
We've chosen fact sheets that use some typical approaches:
- evidence-based (ie citing the studies that have been done on a specific drug, as they explain the efficacy)
- question-and-answer style (addressing a potential patient)
- one-page summary
These fact sheets also have a range of levels of technical language, and make a variety of assumptions about pre-existing knowledge. We hope to gather feedback on which approaches are needed, and for which contexts.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REVIEWERS
1) Identify who will participate in review process.
Many of these materials will be most useful for individuals providing direct service to people with HIV and AIDS, and affected groups. It would be ideal to include a direct service provider (who may also be a person living with HIV/AIDS) in your review team.
2) Review materials & Complete survey
You will find four sub-packets of information.
- (I) antiretrovirals
- (II) opportunistic infections
- (III) Immunology and HIV life cycle basics
- (IV) mother to child transmission
Each sub-packet starts with an introduction/explanation of contents. The second sheet is the sheet reviewers should fill out and return to the Materials working group. Please fill out as many of the questions as you can and use righthand column and the reverse side for additional comments.
You will also find a separate survey (sheet V, white) assessing the need for different types of information on the global context of treatment access today. For this sheet, just check the boxes of the information you want or have already, and indicate translation needs.
