This study aimed to analyze the potential risk factors for the reduction of viral load in Anti Retroviral Therapy profiles in HIV patients in Papua. This research used an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach. Respondents were sampled from 6 hospitals in Papua. Data analysis was conducted using logistic regression. The results of this study indicated that Anti Retroviral Therapy had a significant effect (p=0.000) on the reduction of viral load through the detection of CD4 levels in HIV/AIDS patients.
