Sinopsis

There are various reasons for taking an interest in the treatment for HIV/AIDS. Unfortunately, AIDS has no cure at the moment. But in the absence of a cure, medical science resorts to available treatment options. In seven chapters, this handy book has been designed to help people seek information about treatment strategies for HIV/AIDS. These include: ?a general introduction to HIV/AIDS ?antiretroviral therapy (ART) ?dynamics of ARV drugs ?merits and demerits of ARV drugs ?revival of immune systems in HIV infection ?foundations of immunosuppression ?hints for the HIV-positive. The book also includes details of websites for further research, review questions for those preparing for coursework or examinations, a glossary of terms and an index. By explaining a complex disease as one that can be understood and managed, HIV/AIDS Treatment Strategies provides clear and useful information about this important subject area.
