Q

Acyclovir & Valacylovir

A

ACYCLOVIR
Route: PO, IV, Top.

Viral Spectrum: HSV 1/2, VZV, EBV
MoA: Acycl TriP inhibits viral DNA synth in 2 ways - 1) competitive inhib of viral DNApol, 2) incorporation into viral DNA -> chain termination
Uses: PO -> Genital Herpes (1st episode & recurr infec), Recurr Herpes Labialis, Varicella zoster & Herpes zoster, prophylax of HSV in organ transplant pts; IV -> prophylax of HSV in organ transplant pts, HSV encephalitis, Neonatal HSV

VALACYCLOVIR (Prodrug of Acyclovir) - Greater bioavail
Route: PO
PK: converts to acyc via 1st pass metab. -> greater acyc concen. -> same acyc PK
