There was a significant change in certain immuno-hematological parameters such as WBC count, RBC count, PLT count, Hb, PDW, CD4 count, lymphocyte and neutrophil percentage after initiation of the Dolutegravir based therapy. Anemia was the most common hematological abnormality. Further studies are required to fully comprehend the outcome of the new treatment regimen on immuno-hematological parameters.
