Abstract:- AIDS is not a virus, but rather a set of symptoms caused by the HIV virus. AIDS is diagnosed when a person's immune system is too weak to withstand infection and they develop certain differentiating symptoms and disorders. Because AIDS weakens the immune system, patients are more vulnerable to infections and diseases. The development of efficient medicine delivery methods for the treatment of AIDS and HIV infections is a global issue. HIV is a chronic disease with no known cure, although many researchers are working hard to find one. With medical treatment, including antiretroviral therapy, it is possible to manage HIV and live with the virus for many years. HIV treatment began with monotherapy, and patients were later given a variety of drugs in regimens that required them to take 11–16 tablets every day. The therapy is currently based on a single set dosage of Tenofovir, Lamivudine, and Efavirenz per day or Zidovudine, Lamivudine, and Nevirapine twice per day. Toxicity, resistance, and adherence are still major concerns. Long-acting depot formulations that are effective for prevention and treatment while having fewer side effects are required. AIDS and HIV infection have reached pandemic proportions in many parts of the world. More efficient medication delivery systems are necessary due to the complexities of the viral infection cycle and the goals of antiretroviral medicine administration.
