Question
Do I still need to give my baby co-timoxazole?

Hi, I am HIV positive and my viral load was undetectable when I gave birth in march 2023.
My baby tested negative for two tests. I chose exclusive formula feed.
Is it recommended to still give my baby cotrimoxazole until 2 years.
Answer
Hi there
Thanks for your question – and congratulations on your baby doing so well.
For all questions about a baby’s medicine, we always say to speak to your doctor or another person at the clinic.
This is becasue we don’t have all the information about your baby and ablout the recommendations in each country. Sometimes these are different.
Please talk to your doctor about your concerns.
