Current antiretroviral therapy and its impact on human immunodeficiency virus-related wasting.

Abstract:

:Recent improvements in the management of people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease in the United States have led to remarkable reductions in HIV-related morbidity and mortality. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported substantial reductions in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related opportunistic infections and conditions, including HIV-related wasting. These achievements followed the introduction of the new class of antiretroviral therapies, the aspartyl protease inhibitors, and their use in combination with nucleoside inhibitors in so-called highly active antiretroviral therapies. In an effort to provide guidance for clinicians in HIV care, the Office of AIDS Research, United States Department of Health and Human Services recently convened a panel of experts to set clinical practice guidelines for the use of antiretroviral therapy in adults and adolescents. This article summarizes the new standard of care for the use of HIV therapies. It also reviews recent data suggesting that combination therapy has altered the natural history of HIV infection and has reduced the incidence of HIV-related nutritional disturbances and wasting.
