English term

Nucleoside or Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs)

English to Spanish Medical Medical (general) HIV and related drugs
I know if you just go to the term search section of the website you'll get a lot of translations for this medical term.

But my doubt is not really how to translate it but WHAT is the correct translation. I've found several medical-related websites out there, and they seem to have several ways to say it.

inhibidores nucleósidos de la transcriptasa inversa – http://goo.gl/eZA8Bv
Inhibidores Nucleósidos de la Transcriptasa Inversa – http://goo.gl/lwWBjP

inhibidores de transcriptasa inversa nucleósido/nucieótido (NRTI) – http://goo.gl/PBlC4k
inhibidores de transcriptasa inversa nucleósido – http://goo.gl/re005t

So.. is it "inhibidores nucleósidos de la transcriptasa inversa" or "inhibidores de transcriptasa inversa nucleósido"? and what about nucleótido? is it nucleótido or nucieótido? (even though the second seems like a typo)

María M. Hernández S. Aug 19, 2013:
Concuerdo con la propuesta de Ion en la cual se emplea el adjetivo: inhibidor nucleosídico/nucleotídico. Otra opción, en mi opinión también válida: nucleósido/nucleótido inhibidor de la transcriptasa

El "Diccionario Crítico de Dudas de Medicina Ingles - Espñol" de Fernando Gonzales Navarro recomienda traducir "Nucleoside or Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors" como "Inhibidores nucleosídicos de la retrotranscriptasa". Saludos

"INRT" y no "INRI"! : )

"nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors o NRTl (inhibidores nucleosídicos de la retrotranscriptasa o INRT, más breve que 'inhibidores
nucleosídicos de la transcriptasa inversa')"

Respecto a los términos "nucleotide" y "nucleoside", recomienda traducirlos:

nucleotide: nucleótido
nucleoside: nucleósido
