This Glossary explains common medical and scientific words that are used to describe HIV medicine. It has been produced to make information about HIV therapy easier to understand, and in doing so, to help HIV positive people better understand their treatment options. We do not intend this booklet to replace discussion with your doctor. However, it may help you to decide what questions to ask your doctor about any course of treatment you may be considering.
