Years after effective medications have been available for HIV infection, the stigma of this illness persists and presents a barrier to prevention, testing, and treatment. The treatment of HIV among people with mental illnesses is additionally challenging due to neuropsychiatric manifestations of HIV and drug interactions that may occur between antiretroviral and psychotropic medications. This chapter uses a case example to illustrate the range of psychosocial and clinical issues experienced by people living with HIV/AIDS and those at high risk of HIV infection. The chapter also provides an overview of HIV post-exposure prophylaxis and pre-exposure prophylaxis. In addition, the chapter suggests approaches for improving individual clinical care and provides recommendations for organizational and public health strategies to improve treatment and outcomes in this population.
