Eprociclovir

• Description:

  Eprociclovir is an antiviral drug with nucleoside analogues. The triphosphate form of Eprociclovir is converted into the active form within virus-infected cells by the virus and possible cellular enzymes, including the viral thymidine kinase, thereby inhibiting the activity of the viral DNA polymerase. The primary activity of Eprociclovir is against herpes viruses, including but not limited to cytomegalovirus (CMV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) . Eprociclovir can be used in studies interfered with by sensitive viruses[1].
