Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators believe that disclosure of HIV status could influence medication adherence. If disclosure leads to social support, adherence could be improved. This study purpose is to assess correlation between disclosure and medication adherence, and to describe people whose HIV status has been disclosed to.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pharmacists administer a questionnaire to each consecutive subject taking part in the adherence-enhancing program at the pharmacy of the Department of Ambulatory Care And Community Medicine in Lausanne. This questionnaire assesses disclosure, response to disclosure, and living situation.

Adherence is measured by electronic monitoring and pill count.
