  • Title: What we know about anti-HIV drugs.
    Journal: Treat Rev; 1995 May; (no 18):3-4. PubMed ID: 11362592.
    Abstract:
    AIDS patients are able to double their life expectancies after diagnosis. Drug treatment, an integral part in creating this improvement in life expectancy, consists of antiretroviral drugs, drugs that treat and prevent opportunistic diseases, and therapies that treat specific symptoms of AIDS, such as wasting or anemia. Five available drugs for treating HIV are AZT (Retrovir), ddI (Videx), ddC (Hivid), d4T (Zerit), and 3TC (lamivudine). Findings from studies for each drug in such areas as the drug's purpose, dosage level, effectiveness, and side effects are examined.
