Class Examples Mechanism of Action Adverse Effects
Nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) tenofovir, emtricitabine, abacavir Nucleoside/nucleotide analogues that get incorporated into viral DNA by reverse transcriptase, causing missense or non-sense mutations. The backbone of HIV treatments, with a high barrier to resistance.
Non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) efavirenz Actively inhibit reverse transcriptase at its active site. Resistance develops with a single point mutation.
Protease inhibitor (PI) dirunavir Inhibits protease, which is required for processing proteins in the creation of the virion. Metabolic syndrome
Integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) raltegravir, dolutegravir, bictegravir Generally very well-tolerated; may cause weight gain and diabetes
