Vitamin A supplements for reducing mother-to-child HIV transmission.

CONCLUSIONS: Antepartum or postpartum vitamin A supplementation, or both, probably has little or no effect on mother-to-child transmission of HIV in women living with HIV infection and not on antiretroviral drugs. The intervention has largely been superseded by ART which is widely available and effective in preventing vertical transmission. PMID: 28880995 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
