An overview of multimorbidity and polypharmacy in older people living with HIV.

The availability of effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) has revolutionized the care of people living with HIV (PLHIV).

PLHIV are increasingly confronted with age-related comorbidities and geriatric syndromes, including frailty and polypharmacy, which occur at a higher prevalence and set in at an earlier age compared with their uninfected counterparts.
