Stavudine
An older antiretroviral nucleoside analogue that was widely used in early HIV treatment regimens by blocking the reverse transcriptase enzyme the virus needs to replicate. It has largely been replaced by better-tolerated alternatives due to its risk of causing peripheral nerve damage and serious metabolic complications with long-term use.
