The same molecular process that causes antigenic drift in HIV can lead to resistance to some antiretroviral drugs used in HIV therapy. Which of the following explains why a combination different antiretroviral drugs is more effective than a single antiretroviral drug? Select ALL that apply. a).Each antiretroviral drug has a different mechanism of action and targets a different aspect of HIV replication. b).By using 3 different antiretroviral drugs at the same time, it is highly unlikely that a combination of mutations conferring drug resistance will occur at the same time. c)Administering 3 antiretroviral drugs achieves higher levels of each drug than administering just one antiretroviral drug. d).By using 3 different antiretroviral drugs, these drugs are likely to be more effective in inhibiting the same HIV enzyme than one antiretroviral drug. e),Administering 3 antiretroviral drugs is less toxic than administering one antiretroviral drug.
