Abstract
Cabotegravir + rilpivirine (CAB + RPV-LA) is a long-acting antiretroviral therapy (ART) that can be utilized for people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who face barriers to daily ART. Here, we describe the implementation of a program that provides low-barrier access to CAB + RPV-LA for people with HIV and opioid use disorder at a syringe exchange.
