Mind the Language Antiretroviral therapy—the combination of medications leading to viral suppression in people living with HIV. ART ARV Antiretrovirals—treaments drugs individually or co-formulated. Potentially strategies, such as a periodic shot of ARVs or a viginal ring (inserted monthly), which could potentially provide continuous protection against HIV. Long-acting methods Substances that can block HIV in the vagina or rectum—refers to a range of products including topical PrEP, non-ARV-based compounds and/or “multi-purpose” technologies. Microbicides Multi-purpose technologies The emerging term for combination HIV prevention, STI prevention and/or contraceptive products. PrEP Pre-exposure prophylaxis using ARVs. Topical PrEP ARV-based microbicides. Systemtic use of ART to reduce sexual transmission risk in HIV-positive people. Also known as TasP, T4P, TisP and TLC+ (testing, linkage to care plus treatment).
