The 2010 recommendations were written by a panel of experts who reviewed new HIV data and research on timing of therapy, optimal regimen choices and monitoring that has emerged since the publication of the 2008 guidelines. There’s also now more knowledge about the effectiveness, toxicity and potential uses of newer drugs in HIV management.
