Abstract

The availability of potent antiretroviral drugs and their use in combination regimens has led to a dramatic decline in the morbidity and mortality associated with HIV infection. Currently, there are 15 FDA-approved antiretrovirals categorised into three classes of drugs. Several others are in various stages of basic and clinical development.
