Description and Uses

As it is evident from the chemical structure, acyclovir looks like a nucleoside analog of guanosine in side chain of which, instead of the traditional cyclic sugar residue a 2-hydroxyethoxymethyl acyclic side chain is present. Acyclovir possesses antiviral activity with respect to types 1 and 2 of herpes simplex, shingles virus, Epstein–Barr virus, and cytomegalovirus.

Inhibits cytomegalovirus replication; induces apoptosis
