More people with HIV can be considered for two-drug treatment either with dolutegravir/lamivudine or injectable cabotegravir/rilpivirine, according to updated European AIDS Clinical Society (EACS) guidelines presented at HIV Glasgow 2026.
The new guidelines open up treatment with dolutegravir/lamivudine (Dovato) to people with high viral load, and people with suppressed viral load who have a history of resistance to lamivudine. Pregnant women and children over the age of two should also be able to take dolutegravir/lamivudine if they have suppressed viral load, the new guidelines recommend.
