Q

Describe Acyclovir, the 1st antiviral?

A
  1. Structure/Source- guanosine analog (look-alike)
  2. Mechanism of action
    (a) viral kinase adds one phosphorus to acyclovir
    (b) human host white cell adds two (DP) and third (TP) phosphorus which activates acyclovir
    (c) Tri phosphorus acyclovir inhibits DNA synthesis
  3. Pharmacokinetics used po or iv
  4. Active against: HSV-1 and 2, VZ virus
  5. Clinical uses-genital, ocular herpes
  6. ADRs- very few after po up to 10 years
  7. Resistance- viral kinase mutation, target of tri-phosphorus acyclovir, DNA polymerase undergoes mutation
