Hello, I am a fourth-year medical student participating in the WikiMed course at my university. I’m excited to be able to participate in this article and would welcome any suggestions or advice for my following edits. I am mainly focused on the prophylactic medication section. I want to add other infections we should be aware of when starting prophylactic medications. I also want to add more information on the indication sections, as CD4 count is not the only indication to start prophylactic medication. I want to add a new section discussing when it is appropriate to discontinue the medication. And finally, I want to update and add alternative medications when suggesting the agent.

Below is the bibliography, where I will be referring to the information. Thank you in advance for your suggestions and advice.
