Attitudes and perceptions of pregnant women towards the use of Anti-Retroviral Therapy in Nigeria.

CONCLUSION: The findings provide useful insights to inform Nigeria's health policies on Anti-Retroviral Therapy. There is a need to educate the women on the benefits of the treatment as well as how they can cope with side effects and the daily regimen of the therapy during pregnancy. The findings also indicate the need for training healthcare providers on facilitative patient-provider relationship. PMID: 29954689 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
