New study tests HIV prevention shots for breastfeeding moms and babies
NCT ID NCT05986084
Summary
This study is testing whether long-acting injections to prevent HIV work well and are safe for breastfeeding mothers and their babies. Researchers will follow 500 new mothers in Botswana for two years to see if they continue getting the injections, if they stay HIV-free, and if the medication affects their health or their baby's growth. The goal is to offer effective HIV prevention during the vulnerable postpartum period when mothers are breastfeeding.
