CURE TREATMENT
In 1987, a drug called AZT became the first approved
treatment for HIV disease

You may have heard these drugs called many different names,
including:

The Cocktail
Antiretroviral (ARVs)
Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART or ART)

There are currently five different "classes" of HIV
drugs.
Each class of drug attacks the virus at different points
in its life cycle
