title: Pharmacologic treatment of the patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
abstract: A pharmacologic revolution has occurred over the past 10 years with regards to antiviral therapy, specifically medications directed against HIV. This plethora of new information must be disseminated effectively throughout the medical community. HIV infection and its numerous manifestations, both pedal and systemic, are challenging and often difficult to treat. The well-informed physician will have a distinct advantage with regard to the treatment of the patient with AIDS. The information presented here, although transient, represents a solid knowledge base, a starting point on which the clinician can build effectively.
