Non-nucleoside
reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and boosted protease
inhibitors work equally well for people starting HIV treatment for the first
time, with similar viral suppression, CD4 cell gains, and disease

at IDWeek 2014 earlier this month in Philadelphia. A related study
shed light on factors affecting choice of
