[HIV positive patients visit an increasing number of physicians].

The population of people living with HIV is ageing. As a result, an increasing proportion of people on combination antiretroviral therapy will experience comorbidities and polypharmacy, with the risk of drug-drug interactions. These comorbidities will also be treated by physicians who are not specialised in HIV. Moreover, early diagnosis and treatment improve the prognosis of HIV infection, but 11% of the people living with HIV are currently undiagnosed. Therefore, physicians should be alert to the possibility of HIV also with regard to older adults. Since risk assessment may be challenging, testing for HIV upon diagnosis of an indicator condition could prove a useful strategy to enhance earlier diagnosis for all physicians.
