This also means there will be no need for people to crush the pills for them to be administered on children. Official statistics say about half the children living with HIV are not on medication because the pill is bitter and it is difficult to administer to children.

Other counties like Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, and Benini will also try the flavored ARV drug which costs $120 per year instead of the current $500 per year
