Co-trimoxazole is an antibiotic that reduces rates of opportunistic infections, such as malaria, diarrhea, and pneumonia, and death among adults and children living with HIV. Access to this intervention, however, remains inconsistent. A key barrier to appropriate Co-trimoxazole use is limited awareness about the benefits of using the antibiotic as a prophylaxis.Through a collaborative effort involving USAID, CDC, and clinicians and behavior change specialists in Uganda, AIDSTAR-One developed job aids, posters, and brochures for the household and health care levels to provide clear and accessible instructions for proper Co-trimoxazole use.
