[Clinical counseling and management of HIV-positive patients--secondary individual prophylaxis in patients with HIV infection].
In patients with HIV infection, secondary prophylaxis should prevent HIV-associated complications caused by opportunistic infections and psychosocial morbidity. This overview presents the possibilities of chemoprophylaxis and control of transmission to prevent opportunistic and non-opportunistic infections. Indications for immunization in HIV-positive patients are also discussed. Both medical treatment and psychological and social support are equally important for optimal patient care.
