Favipiravir CAS 259793-96-9

99% Favipiravir CAS 259793-96-9 Function

Favipiravir is a nucleoside antiviral drug, the mechanism of action has not been fully explained. The target is the viral

rna-dependent RNA polymerase. After oral absorption, the drug was converted into a bioactive nucleoside triphosphate of

Favipiravir, whose structure was similar to that of purine Chemicalbook and could compete with purines for viral RNA polymerase.

The nucleoside triphosphates of Favipiravir can also be inserted into viral RNA strands, inducing lethal mutations in the virus.

Therefore, in terms of mechanism, Favipiravir has potential antiviral effect on various RNA viruses

99% Favipiravir CAS 259793-96-9 Application

Favipiravir can be used for antiviral treatment of influenza a and b. Research shows that, in addition to influenza virus, the

drug

also showed good antiviral activity against a variety of RNA viruses, such as ebola virus, sand virus, bunya virus, rabies virus..
