Lamivudine/zidovudine (Combivir) is a commonly used combination medication for HIV treatment during pregnancy. It has been shown to be safe and effective in preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Efavirenz (A) is not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy due to potential risk of fetal abnormalities. Raltegravir (C) and maraviroc (D) are not typically used as part of initial antiretroviral therapy during pregnancy.
