NACA Debunks Fake News on HIV Drug Pricing in Nigeria

February 27, 2025- Abuja

The National Agency for the Control of AIDS (NACA) is aware of a false information circulating online regarding the cost of HIV treatment in Nigeria.

The claim that antiretroviral drugs will now cost 250,000 per dose with patients required to pay 500,000 monthly is completely false and misleading.

HIV treatment in Nigeria remains free of charge at Government owned health facilities. The Government in collaboration with donor partners remains steadfast in providing free and accessible HIV treatment to all who need it.
