 Hello and thanks for your post. Enfuvirtide (Fuzeon) is only available as a twice-daily subcutaneous injection and it is the only member of it's drug class. Maraviroc (Selzentry) is a different class of medications (CCR5 inhibitor). Both drugs prevent HIV entry into human cells, but work through entirely different mechanisms. Hope this helps, BY | ||||||||
