Gilead officials said that the company will include Truvada in its Gilead Access Program, which provides access to anti-HIV medications on the developing work at no-profit pricing. Glaxo also said Epzicom will be sold in poor nations at a no-profit price. The FDA approval also makes both drugs available for purchase through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, which aims to provide antiretroviral therapy in 15 poor nations in Africa, the Caribbean, and Asia. FDA officials say the fixed-dose combination pills will help HIV-positive people better stick to their antiretroviral drug regimens. "Simplifying treatment regimens by reducing the number of pills and times per day patients need to take them provides significant public health benefits," said acting FDA commissioner Lester Crawford in a press release.
