The American Food and Drug Administration has granted approval for a revolutionary injectable medication that offers 99.9 percent protection against the HIV virus, which causes AIDS. Although AIDS cannot be completely cured, treatments aimed at managing its effects have been continuously improving. However, there has not been significant progress in preventing the HIV virus, which leads to the disease, from infecting individuals in advance. As a result, every year, 1 million people are affected by AIDS.In this context, the American regulatory agency has now granted approval for a medication called ‘Lenacapavir’, which offers 99.9% protection against HIV infection. Although medications to prevent HIV infection have been introduced many years ago, issues such as the necessity of daily intake have persisted. The newly approved Lenacapavir only requires administration twice a year. Experts have indicated that this medication represents a revolutionary advancement.
