CAS 113852-37-2: Cidofovir
Description:Cidofovir is an antiviral medication primarily used in the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in patients with AIDS. It is a nucleotide analogue of cytosine, which inhibits viral DNA polymerase, thereby preventing viral replication. Cidofovir is characterized by its high potency against a range of DNA viruses, including herpesviruses. The compound is typically administered intravenously due to its poor oral bioavailability. It has a relatively long half-life, allowing for less frequent dosing compared to other antiviral agents. Cidofovir is known to have nephrotoxic effects, necessitating careful monitoring of renal function during treatment. Additionally, it is often co-administered with probenecid to mitigate nephrotoxicity by reducing renal tubular secretion. The substance is classified as a prescription medication and is not recommended for use in pregnant women due to potential teratogenic effects. Overall, Cidofovir represents a critical therapeutic option for managing severe viral infections in immunocompromised patients.
