AIDS Question for Biology test? |
AIDS patients are typically prescribed a drug cocktail. What are these drugs called (names for them) and what are the two main viral activities that these drugs are designed to counteract? I can't explain it better than the link below. you can try going to www.webmd.com or www.mayoclinic.com. those are the sites that i visit the most when i can't find the answer i need. this way you can also site your source. The HIV virus which causes AIDS replicates, infecting the healthy cells of the affected person.The pharmaceutical (allopathic) medicines used for AIDS try to slow down the speed at which the HIV virus multiplies and are called antiretroviral drugs.Natural treatment for AIDS try to strengthen the immune system of the affected person. Herbal medicines are often used in combination with alternative treatment methods like massage, acupuncture and meditation. More details and remedy at http://www.pnuaids.com/ The cocktail itself is called HAART, or Highly Active AntiRetroviral Therapy. There are 3 drugs in it, two "protease inhibitors" and one "antiretroviral" drug. The protease inhibitor stops the HIV from degrading the proteins of the cell it is in. See, it degrades the cell protein, inserts it's own protein, and then the cell makes HIV viruses instead of new cells. The next is the antiretroviral drug, which does the same thing. HIV is calle a "retrovirus" because it takes apart cellular DNA and uses it to it's own advantage, like described above. Both drugs keep patients alive for longer and happier periods of time. |
