Acyclovir Tablets

Antiviral drug. It has an inhibitory effect on herpes simplex virus, varicella zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, etc. in vitro. After entering the cells infected by herpes virus, this product competes with deoxynucleoside for viral thymidine kinase or cell kinase, and the drug is phosphorylated into activated acyclovir triphosphate, and then inhibits viral replication in two ways: ① Interfering with viral DNA polymerase to inhibit viral replication; ② Under the action of DNA polymerase, it binds to the growing DNA chain, causing the extension of the DNA chain to be interrupted. This product has a special affinity for viruses, but has low toxicity to mammalian host cells. There are reports of carcinogenicity in in vitro cell transformation assays, but no evidence of carcinogenicity has been found in animal experiments. Some animal experiments show that high concentrations of drugs can cause mutations, but there is no evidence of chromosomal changes. The carcinogenic and mutagenic effects of this product are still unclear. High-dose injection can cause testicular atrophy and reduced sperm count in animals. The drug can pass through the placenta, and animal experiments have confirmed that it has no effect on the embryo.

The main ingredient of this product is acyclovir, and its chemical name is 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine. Molecular formula: C8H11N5O3, molecular weight: 225.21.
