       A new drug
            combination has been developed that will offset the
            hardening       of HIV patients' arteries by the protease
            inhibitors that extend their       lives. While protease
            inhibitors have been miracle drugs for those       suffering
            from HIV and AIDS, some users have experienced hardening of
            the       arteries as a side effect. A new drug, called
            nucleoside reverse       transcriptase inhibitors, have
            prevented the negative cardiovascular       effect after
            being tested on mice.     
       The finding was
            discovered by researchers at the University of Kentucky,
            reported Health Day News. (The       Advocate)
