Tuberculosis-HIV Co-infection

HIV/TB coinfection is the combination of HIV and TB infection. Those with HIV have a higher risk of developing TB disease from an untreated latent TB infection than do people without HIV. TB illness is regarded as an AIDS-defining condition in patients with HIV.Conditions that constitute AIDS include infections and cancers that provide a life-threatening hazard to HIV-positive people.
HIV treatment is referred to as antiretroviral therapy (ART). HIV medications boost the immune system, preventing the spread of HIV and AIDS-related illnesses (AIDS). Treatment with HIV and TB medications minimizes the likelihood that latent TB infection may progress to TB illness in patients with HIV and latent TB infection.
