6. Use of ART in Pregnancy

7. Conceiving on ART? Continue mother’s ART even if it contains efavirenz or does not contain AZT Intensify to three drugs if on PI mono-therapy The combination of D4T and DDI should never be prescribed in pregnancy

8. ART Naive Low CD4: if mother requires ART for her own health start as soon as possible – Backbone of Kivexa/Truvada/Combivir plus PI or NNRTI depending on resistance or viral load – Darunavir od with TDM or bd – Elite controller: AZT monotherapy

9. ART Naive cont. High CD4: – Should be started on therapy by 24/40 weeks – Which REGIMEN? – Viral load result dependant <10,000 copies/ml (AZT plus C/S ) >100,000 copies/ml commence 3 drug regimen at the beginning of second trimester

10. Detectable Viral Load at 36/40 weeks! – Review adherence and concomitant medication ?antacid /PPI use – Perform Resistance Test (result may be too late) – Optimise to best regimen – Consider intensification

11. Late presenter? >28 weeks start ART without delay If the viral load unknown OR >100,000? – Use 3 or 4 drug regimen including raltegravir Untreated woman presenting in labour with or without ruptured membranes? – Urgent HIV test then if HIV+ve – Give loading dose with nevirapine, iv AZT, raltegravir; If Preterm Labour – Use 3 or 4 drug regimen including double dose tenofovir preceeding delivery (until the baby is able to absorb Rx)
