Current treatments available for HIV
HIV has become a manageable condition due to advances in treatments like Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), which reduces viral load, increases CD4 count, and prevents transmission. ART includes NRTIs, NNRTIs, PIs, integrase, and entry inhibitors. Single-tablet regimens and preventive treatments like PrEP and PEP are also used. Challenges include adherence, side effects, and access. Future treatments may involve long-acting injectables, gene therapy, and vaccines.
