Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerance of 2 anti-HIV drugs, d4T and 3TC, given in combination to HIV-positive pregnant women and their infants.
Most HIV-positive pregnant women usually take the anti-HIV drug zidovudine (ZDV) to treat HIV and reduce the chances of giving HIV to their babies. It recently has been shown that a combination of drugs may be more effective than ZDV alone. This study tests the effectiveness of combinations of ZDV, d4T, and 3TC.
