Antiviral treatments refer to therapeutic interventions designed to combat viral infections by targeting specific stages of the viral life cycle. These treatments encompass a variety of drugs that inhibit viral replication, entry, or other essential processes. Common antiviral drug classes include nucleoside analogs, protease inhibitors, polymerase inhibitors, and entry inhibitors. Antiviral treatments have been instrumental in managing various viral infections, such as influenza, herpes, HIV, hepatitis, and respiratory viruses. They may be administered as oral medications, intravenous infusions, or topical formulations, depending on the nature of the infection. In the context of emerging viruses and global health crises, antiviral treatments play a critical role in controlling outbreaks. The development and rapid deployment of antiviral drugs have been evident in responding to public health emergencies such as the influenza pandemic and the COVID-19 pandemic. Challenges in antiviral treatments include the potential for the emergence of drug-resistant viral strains and side effects. Ongoing research focuses on discovering new antiviral agents, understanding viral resistance mechanisms, and developing innovative therapies to enhance treatment efficacy and reduce adverse effects.
