Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/22/2015 -- HIV is a type of retrovirus that causes infection in human beings. AIDS is a life-threatening disease caused by this virus. In this disease certain white blood cells (lymphocytes) are destroyed, resulting in the loss of the body's ability to protect itself against infections. The major route of transmission of HIV infection is unprotected sex, contaminated needle, breast milk, and infected blood. HIV attacks the body's white blood cells, specifically a subset called CD4 or helper T cells. The anti-retroviral therapy is used to treat the patient and help the immune system fight the infection. This is mainly used to keep the level of the HIV low in the body.

Technavio's analysts forecast the global HIV drugs market to grow at a CAGR of 4.52% over the period 2014-2019.
