ABSTRACT
Persons with HIV infection report substantial use of complementary and alternative medical (CAM) therapies for symptom management. Anecdotal reports from patients indicate that CAM approaches are helpful; however, there is limited scientific information on the safety and efficacy of these therapies in the HIV population. The purpose of this review is to critically appraise the scientific evidence for selected CAM therapies that are used by HIV-infected persons to manage three common symptoms nutritional alterations, pain, and depression.
