Question

All of the following could be meds used to treat HIV infection EXCEPT:

Question 10 options:

	Reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
	Fusion inhibitors.
	Tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
	Protease inhibitors.
	Integrase inhibitors.

Answer 1

Right answer is Tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is a anti cancer drug not used for the treatment of HIV. It is used for the treatment of chronic myleoid lekuemia.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitor drug inhibit tyrosine kinase which is an enzyme responsible for the activation of many protein.

Option A is right because Revers transcriptase inhibitor is used for the treatment of HIV.

This is two type nucleotides reverse transcriptase inhibitor NRTI for example- lamivudine, stavudine  zidovudine

and non nucleotides reverse transcriptase inhibitor NNRTI for Ex. Nevirapine.

Fusion inhibitor is also used for Treatment of Hiv​ these drug help block HIV from getting inside healthy cells in the first place.

Example- Enfuvirtide.

PROTEASE INHIBITOR is also used for the treatment of HIV

These drugs block a protein that infected cells need to put together new HIV virus particle.

Example- Atazanavir, Ritonavir.

INTIERASE INHIBITOR is also used for the treatment of HIV

These stop HIV making copy itself by blocking a key protein that allows the virus to put its DNA to healthy cell DNA.

EXAMPLE- Dolutegravir, Raltegravir.
