Abstract

We investigated the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of locally produced generic highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimens with a chart review conducted at YRG CARE, a tertiary HIV referral centre in India. A total of 333 patients had been on Indian-manufactured generic HAART for at least 3 months. In this cohort, generic HAART was safe, well tolerated and effective at increasing CD4 T-lymphocyte counts in patients with advanced HIV, comparable to the experience with proprietary HAART.
