Summary

This study explores whether a simple hair test can tell if people with HIV are taking their medications as prescribed. Researchers will measure drug levels in different parts of a single hair strand from 30 participants who are known to be compliant. The goal is to see if hair can reliably detect missed doses, offering a non-invasive alternative to blood tests.
