What is Acyclovir?
Acyclovir is antiviral drug that is active against viruses Herpes simplex type 1 and 2, Varicella zoster, Epstein-Barr virus. Acyclovir is used to treat sensitive to the medication viral infections: herpetic infections of the skin and mucous lining (cold sore, genital herpes), shingles, herpes zoster including patients with immunodeficiency. Acyclovir is made by many pharmaceutical companies like Cipla (Acivir), Ranbaxy, Zydus, Starmed (Medivir). Acyclovir comes in the form of oral tablets Acyclovir 800mg, 400mg and 200mg.
How does Acyclovir work?
Acyclovir is an antiviral agent (virostatic), acyclic guanine analogue, natural component of DNA, a synthetic nucleoside analogue of thymidine. After oral administration Acyclovir under the action of the enzyme thymidine kinase is converted into its active form acyclovir triphosphate. Acyclovir triphosphate penetrates infected by herpes virus cells and inhibits DNA polymerase. Then competitively substitutes deoxyguanosine triphosphate in the synthesis of DNA viruses.
By embedding in the synthesized virus DNA acyclovir triphosphate blocks the multiplication of the virus.
The high selectivity and low toxicity to humans is associated with absence of thymidine kinase in healthy human cells. The specificity and very high selective actions is also connected with its accumulation in cells infected by herpes virus.
Acyclovir is active against herpes simplex virus Herpes simplex types 1 and 2, the virus that causes chickenpox and Varicella zoster, Epstein-Barr virus. Acyclovir is moderately active against cytomegalovirus.
In patients with Herpes infection, Acyclovir helps prevent the formation of new elements of rashes, reduces the likelihood of cutaneous dissemination and visceral complications, speeds up the formation of crusts, reduces pain in the acute phase of herpes zoster, posesses immunostimulatory effect.
Which is Acyclovir pharmacokinetics?
After oral administration nearly 20% of acyclovir is absorbed into the blood circulation. Only a very small amount of Acyclovir binds to plasma proteins. The concentration of acyclovir in cerebrospinal fluid is approximately 50% of its concentration in plasma. Acyclovir penetrates hemato-placental barrier, is excreted with breast milk. The active metabolite of Acyclovir is 9- carboxymethoxymethylguanine (CMMG). Acyclovir is excreted with urine in unchanged form and in the form of metabolites. The average half-lafe period is 3 hours.
