What is HIV treatment? (also called drug therapy)
HIV treatment is the use of drugs to keep an HIV positive person healthy. For most people who start HIV drug (antiretroviral) therapy, their viral load drops to an undetectable level (below 50 copies/mL) within 16-20 weeks. However, HIV drug treatment is complicated and different people have different results. HIV treatment can help people at all stages of HIV disease stay healthy.
