Medical and neuropsychiatric sequelae of HIV infection present a spectrum of diagnostic and treatment challenges to mental health clinicians. These sequelae can result in new onset psychiatric conditions in persons with no premorbid history of severe mental illness, and can complicate the clinical picture in persons with a history of severe mental illness prior to HIV infection. HIV enters the centra nervous system soon after infection, and result in clinical manifestations that may range from neurocognitive impairment to dementia. In this article, some of the more common neuropsychiatric manifestations of HIV infection (HIV-related dementia, now onset psychosis, mood disorders, anxiety, delirium) and general treatment strategies are described.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessantiretrovirus agentbenzodiazepine derivativecarbamazepinechlorpromazinecitalopramdesipraminediazepamfluoxetinehaloperidollithiumlorazepammethylphenidateneuroleptic agentnortriptylineolanzapineparoxetineproteinase inhibitorrisperidoneserotonin uptake inhibitorsertralinetricyclic antidepressant agentvalproic acidvenlafaxinezidovudineacquired immune deficiency syndromeanxiety disordercentral nervous systemclinical featurecognitive defectdeliriumdementiadisease associationdisease severityextrapyramidal symptomhumanHuman immunodeficiency virus infectionlethalitymajor depressionmental healthmood disorderneuropsychiatrypsychosispsychotherapyRetrovirusreviewReview Article16551562-s2.0-2942740840N/A
