INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Men who are living with HIV and use stimulants face many challenges and barriers that may interfere with remembering to take their HIV medication. Forgetting to take HIV medication puts men living with HIV at a greater risk of becoming virally unsuppressed. Researchers are doing this study to test if a remote intervention can help participants improve remembering to take their HIV medications and reduce the HIV viral load among men living with HIV who use stimulants.
