A member asked:

What is the cost of hiv meds outside the u.s.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: In developed nations like the us, a year's worth of antiretrovirals can cost tens of thousands of dollars which is paid for by the patient, the health insurance system or the government. In developing nations, cheaper generic versions of the drugs cost governments about two to three hundred dollars per patient per year.
