Although all participants are given AZT and ddI, about half of them are taking a placebo for nevirapine.
All the babies were also given AZT after birth.
Is there still a benefit to giving AZT to a newborn infant even if the mother did not receive it during pregnancy?
Testing people at risk of infection and giving AZT to those who need it would cost several billion dollars a year, he said.
Half were given the single dose of nevirapine, the other half AZT for six weeks.
(Ms. Lopez later learned that she was in the group that had been given AZT.)
Some people thought to try giving health care workers AZT to prevent seroconversion.
Infants born to mothers who took AZT were given AZT twice a day during the first week of life.
Should the animal be given AZT or protease inhibitors?
We know that pregnant women who are given AZT give birth to healthy babies.
