AI-generated Abstract

CBT-AD is shown to be effective in improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy among people with HIV/AIDS who are also experiencing depression. Traditional treatments for depression have often neglected the adherence aspect, assuming that treating depression would inherently improve adherence to medication. This new approach has potential impact, especially in low-income and middle-income countries where mental health resources are scarce and depression is prevalent among HIV-positive individuals. However, more research is necessary to evaluate CBT-AD's efficacy in cases of severe depression and to conduct comparisons against placebo.
