For HIV theres only treatment But theres No CURE!! yet!. when person is diagnosed with HIV the doctor will prescribe some tablets for him so that the immune system keeps defending and doesn't get worse and get into AIDS which is usually deadly. So if u are HIV+ you will be prescribed with tablets to make you feel better if symptoms are occurring.

There are now over 20 individual HIV drugs, known as antiretrovirals (ARVs), on the market to treat this disease, along with 5 combination drugs (pills that combine two or three ARVs), and more are on the way. What's more, we've learned a lot about when and how to use available medications much more easily and effectively-and with fewer side effects. Most researchers and doctors believe that HIV can be effectively treated for decades, permitting a normal lifespan for many.

Can HIV be cured within a certain period from the time of infection?

Yes, actually. If you think you have been exposed to HIV there is a treatment called HIV prophylaxis. This can greatly reduce the chances of HIV forming and if it doesn't then it can lessen the effects of HIV. There can be a myriad of side effects such as headaches, lethargy, and nausea. The treatment should be started right after suspected exposure and lasts up to a month. It is also expensive and limited in availability. Good Luck!
