The implementation of tuberculosis preventive therapy in HIV care clinics in Africa, Asia and Latin America: a multiregional site survey

Key Points

Access to tuberculosis preventive therapy is often limited in HIV care clinics across regions.
TPT was available in most clinics, but not consistently accessible for people at higher risk.
Assessment via a multiregional site survey highlights areas needing improvement.
Strengthening WHO recommendations is crucial to enhance TPT availability for people living with HIV.

Abstract

TPT was available at most HIV care clinics in LMICs but further efforts are needed to reinforce WHO recommendations and ensure that TPT is consistently accessible to people at higher risk of developing active TB, especially PLWH.
