(RITA!) HIV Treatment Alerts - April 2002

This is the second year of HIV Treatment ALERTS! and we hope you find this newsletter helpful and informative. The science and medicine of HIV change constantly. The "best" way to treat HIV today could be very different tomorrow. That's what HIV Treatment ALERTS! is for—to keep you informed of the latest changes in HIV medicine: new drugs, drug warnings and interactions, ways to treat side effects, clinical trial information, useful websites and phone numbers, special reports, and much more. However, some changes have been made to improve the newsletter. Each new issue will use a different color than the previous one, to make it easier to tell issues apart. Also, main articles will be shorter and more to-the-point. The amount of information on HIV disease is overwhelming and we want you, the reader, to get the most out of our publication without becoming overwhelmed yourself! Remember that words in bold are explained in the "Definitions" section. If you ever have any questions, feel free to contact us (see the shaded box below) or visit our walk-in information center.

Until there's a cure, use HIV to find Hope, Inspiration, and Victory.
