Mechanism of action

Atazanavir is a protease inhibitor that prevents HIV protease from cleaving viral polyproteins, blocking the maturation of infectious viral particles. Raltegravir is an integrase inhibitor that prevents HIV integrase from inserting viral DNA into the host genome. Together, they provide dual-mechanism antiretroviral activity against HIV-1.
