Most antivirals are considered relatively harmless to the host, and therefore can be used to treat infections. They should be distinguished from viricides, which are not medications, but deactivate or destroy virus particles, either inside or outside the body. Antivirals also can be found in es...
High-throughput screening and hit optimization have led to the development of a small molecule, CIM-834, that targets the SARS-CoV-2 membrane protein and blocks assembly of the virus. Manon Laporte Dirk Jochmans Johan Neyts ResearchOpen Access26 Mar 2025Nature ...

2CATPase and 3Dpol may be more promising targets for direct-acting antiviral drugs as they can be inhibited by small molecules, and several inhibitors of these factors were found to have broad-range anti-enteroviral activity. Other targets for broad-spectrum antiviral drugs are host factors, as...
. Although community-based actions can be established quickly and are effective in slowing the spread of pathogens, they lose effectiveness as the outbreak progresses owing to their impact on local and global economies; in fact, they can lead to serious and long-lasting financial and social ...
Antibiotics can't be used to treatviral infections, but they often are employed to treat bacterial infections like pneumonia or ear infections that spring up after a viral illness, the experts said. Doctors also might be prescribing antibiotics if they can't tell whether the cause of a child'...
drugs to treat infections with viruses currently perceived as a threat to societies or associated with a potential for misuse as biothreat agents. This review will outline the state-of-the-art methods in antivirals research discussed and provide an overview of antiviral compounds in the pipeline ...
So, why can’t we just use antibiotics to fight Covid-19? For the simple reason that antibiotics only treat bacterial infections…they can’t treat viruses — only antivirals can. Bacterial vs. viral infections — what’s the difference? Bacteria are self-contained microorganisms that can ...
What is the current status of Remdesivir's approval by the FDA in the context of COVID-19 treatment? What evidence supports the antiviral activity of Ebselen against SARS-CoV-2? What conclusions can be drawn about the potential of Ebselen and Ebsulfur as antiviral reagents?
