Treatment of HIV and AIDS is generally recommended by doctors using antiretroviral therapy (ARV). This therapy consists of a combination of antiviral drugs for HIV infection. Treatment with ARV drugs is recommended for all people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA), regardless of how long they have been infected or how healthy they are. So, what are the options for antiretroviral drugs as a way of treating HIV and AIDS?
HIV/AIDS Treatment with the medicine of antiretroviral (ARV)
HIV/AIDS is a chronic condition caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus. In people infected with HIV, the immune system will be weakened making it difficult to protect against various infectious diseases.
For most people, taking ARV drugs is very effective at controlling HIV symptoms. This drug is expected to control viral infections so that PLWHA patients can live healthy lives while reducing the risk of transmission to others.
Antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) work by reducing the HIV viral load to such a low level that the virus may no longer be detectable in a viral load test for HIV. That way, HIV infection can not cause interference with the immune system. HIV viral load is the ratio of the number of HIV virus particles per 1 milliliter in the blood. In addition, according to the HIV.gov information page, people with HIV/AIDS who regularly take ARV drugs have a very low risk of transmitting HIV sexually to their HIV-negative partners.
