Abacavir (CAT: I001404) is an antiviral medication used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS. It belongs to the class of drugs known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Abacavir works by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, which is necessary for the replication of the HIV virus. It is typically used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs to suppress HIV infection and reduce the viral load in the body.
