Protease inhibitor antiviral drugs
Antimetabolites and RT inhibitor antiviral drugs
- Abacavir - a powerful nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor used to treat HIV and AIDS.
- Adefovir Dipivoxil - nucleotide analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor (ntRTI) hepatitis B treatment.
- Cidofovir - an viral DNA synthase inhibitor treats cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis.
- Delavirdine - A non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitor active against HIV-1.
- Didanosine - a dideoxynucleoside prevents phosphodiester bonds; it is an inhibitor of HIV replication.
- Emtricitabine - a cytidine analog, RT inhibitor for treatment of HIV.
- Entecavir - a guanosine analog for treatment of hepatitis B.
