How ETRAVIRINE Works

Etravirine works by acting as a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. It targets the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase enzyme to interfere with the virus's ability to replicate. As an antiretroviral drug, it helps manage the infection by blocking this specific viral process.
