Abstract

Patient factors that affect proper usage of antiretrovirals include knowledge, attitudes and practices of the patient towards antiretroviral therapy (ART). Effective management of HIV/AIDS will not be achieved where knowledge and practice of ART are poor or patients have negative attitudes towards their medications.

This study was aimed at determining the knowledge, attitudes and practices towards ART among People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAS) attending clinic at University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Ituku-Ozalla of Enugu State South-east of Nigeria.

Methods: A cross sectional study of nine hundred and sixty-two (962) adult PLWHAS receiving antiretroviral medications was conducted in 2013.

Quantitative data were collected using interviewer- administered, semi-structured questionnaire while qualitative data were collected using focus group discussions (FGD) held among the research participants for in-depth information.

Introduction

There has been progress in the battle against the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). ¹

Into the fourth decade of the AIDS epidemic, the world has begun to reverse the spread of HIV – thus achieving the Millennium Development Goal 6.A. However, for many years to come, the impact of HIV will remain with man.

Global efforts at confronting the AIDS epidemic have yielded encouraging results in recent years such as: expanding access to treatment, improved prevention works and significant scale up of antiretroviral therapy (ART) over the past few years.²

In Nigeria, there is an ongoing scale up of treatment programs. From initial 20 service sites, there has been a scale-up of ART and PMTCT site to 446 and 675 sites 2010 respectively as at 2009.
