Two HIV medicines are among the drugs approved for use on the NHS in Wales in November 2008.
The All Wales Medicines Strategy Group recommends raltegravir (Isentress) as an option in treatment-experienced adults and fixed-dose abacavir and lamivudine (Kivexa) is endorsed as a treatment for adults and adolescents from 12 years of age. Each medicine should be used in accordance with British HIV Association guidance.
