Research shows that a long-term drug delivery system can prevent and treat HIV infection

Recently, a virological study published in the British journal Nature communication 8 shows that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection can be prevented and treated through a long-term drug delivery system The drug (http:// is a newly developed oral drug, which is taken once a week Experiments in pigs show that it has the potential to help patients adhere to treatment, so as to reduce treatment failure and the emergence of drug-resistant viruses The team used pig experiments to show that their "pill" can slowly release three antiretroviral drugs, and can maintain a high enough concentration of the drug within a week The mathematical model also shows that the new treatment is expected to significantly reduce treatment failure and prevent the emergence of new HIV cases in high-risk groups by improving the effectiveness of pre exposure preventive treatment The researchers said that although the results of the current pig experiment are quite gratifying, further research is still needed For this therapy, more experiments are needed to verify the safety and effectiveness,
