Kenya has introduced a strawberry-flavoured tablet for children living with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
The paediatric formulation of dolutegravir, a drug recommended as first-line anti-retroviral for HIV treatment by the World Health Organisation (WHO), has been hailed as a game changer in managing the virus in children as it makes treatment easier and cheaper.
