Description

The Liverpool HIV Drug Interactions website is a world-leading HIV prescribing support tool, that provides clinically useful, reliable, comprehensive, up-to-date, evidence-based drug-drug interaction (DDI) information, freely available to healthcare workers, patients and researchers.

Usage of the HIV resources is relatively low in China due in part to the fact that the resources are only available in English. English language proficiency is variable in China and local health care professionals would benefit greatly from reliable prescribing resources in Chinese. The need is further supported by statistics of approximately 1.25 million PLWHIV in China, and those receiving treatment are at risk of drug-drug interactions due to co-morbidities as well as age related polypharmacy.

To meet this clinical need, a project to translate the HIV DDI database (of which the resources are built upon) to Chinese was initiated.
