HIV Treatment Guidelines, Drug Database, and Glossary Now on clinicalinfo.HIV.gov
Today, HIV.gov, in collaboration with NIH’s Office of AIDS Research (OAR), launched clinicalinfo.HIV.gov, a website providing access to the latest HHS HIV treatment guidelines, HIV drug database, and HIV glossary. The Spanish language versions of these assets are also available on the site.
The clinicalinfo.HIV.gov website will ensure that health care providers, public health partners, researchers, people affected by HIV, and the general public continue to have access to the latest, federally-approved HIV clinical treatment and prevention guidelines as well as related tools and information about HIV-related research.
The new site features:
- Guidelines: The federally approved medical practice (clinical) guidelines for HIV/AIDS are developed by panels of experts in HIV care. The guidelines are available in multiple formats. Future updates to the guidelines will be released on this site.
- Glossary: The HIV glossary provides definitions of a broad range of HIV-related terms and offers an easily searchable interface.
- Drug database: This searchable database helps users find information on FDA-approved HIV/AIDS and opportunistic infection drugs as well as investigational drugs for HIV treatment and prevention.
These assets transitioned to the clinicalinfo.HIV.gov website from the AIDSinfo.gov and infoSIDA.gov websites, which were administered by NIH’s National Library of Medicine (NLM).
Simultaneously, OAR is launching HIVinfo.nih.gov that will feature related content that formerly resided at AIDSinfo.gov and infoSIDA.gov.
Please help us raise awareness of the availability of the HIV clinical guidelines and other assets on clinicalinfo.HIV.gov site among healthcare providers and others who will find them useful.
OAR coordinates HIV/AIDS research across the NIH. As HIV crosses nearly every area of medicine and scientific investigation, the response to the HIV pandemic requires a multi-Institute, multidisciplinary, global research program. OAR provides scientific coordination and management of this research program. OAR also manages the panels of experts in HIV care that maintain the HIV treatment guidelines and has long funded the availability of the guidelines in various formats online.
