AIDS is acquired immuno deficiency syndrome , up to now
there are no drugs which can claim complete cure of the
disease, drugs are available that can control the virus from
quick replication, usually retroviral drugs are used for the
treatment,the virus is very potent and misuse of the drugs
can lead to resistant strains, hence multi drug therapy is
usually suggested like zidovudine, lamivudine ,stavudine,
acyclovir, guancyclovir etc ,the list goes on.. depending
upon the intensity of the disease
