Abstract
Severely immunosuppressed patients who begin HAART may reactivate or aggravate a mycobacterial disease such as tuberculosis. In such cases, current recommendations call for continuing HAART, beginning or continuing the antimycobacterial therapy, and considering corticosteroids on a case-by-case basis. For patients with AIDS, opportunistic infections that might be reactivated should be actively sought before HAART.
