After all the gains that have been achieved in the fight against HIV, including the development of medications and the expansion of treatment programs – reducing HIV drug resistance is the next challenge that we are facing. HIV drug resistance is the failure of HIV to respond to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART). When drug resistance occurs, patients must switch from the first combination of antiretroviral drugs (1st line treatment) to a different combination of drugs, this is called 2nd line HAART.
