The research design used was an analytical cross sectional observational using paired t-test. The main modality for HIV patients is fixed dose combination antiretroviral tablets. Observations on CD4 cell counts were carried out after the patient had taken antiretroviral combination tablets for a period of 12 months. The result of the study is, only 3 of 18 patients showed progresiion of CD4 cell counts. The conclusion in this study was that there was no significant difference between the mycosis group and the non-mycosis group (p> 0,05).
