Maternal TDF and FTC to Reduce NNRTI Resistance Mutations After Intrapartum NVP

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of tenofovir (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC)to a standard PMTCT regimen containing single-dose nevirapine (NVP) can reduce the development of post-ingestion HIV resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs).
