 * The point of the drug is to keep the amount of the HIV in the body at a low level.
 * stops the weakening of the immune system and allows it to recover from damage done from the HIV virus.
 * taking three or more anti-HIV drugs
 * known as Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART)
 * if one drug is taken at a time, the HIV would become more resistant to it and the drug would stop working.
 * taking more than one drug would reduce that chance of the HIV resisting, making the treatment more effective in the long run.
