title: Pharmacological management of cardiovascular conditions and diabetes in older adults with HIV infection.
abstract: This review looks at the evidence for potential and theoretical risks of combining antiretroviral treatment with drugs prescribed for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. These conditions are common in the HIV-infected population as a result of ageing and the increased risk associated with both HIV infection and antiretroviral intake.
