Arbidol is an antiviral treatment for influenza infection used in Russia and China. The drug is manufactured by Pharmstandard and since 2005 it has been the number one best-selling over-the-counter drug in Russia. Although some Russian studies have shown it to be effective, it is not approved for use in Western countries. Chemically, arbidol features an indole core, functionalized at all but one position with different substituents. The drug inhibits viral entry into target cells and also stimulates the immune response.
Arbidol is used primarily as an antiviral treatment for influenza. The drug has also been investigated as a candidate drug for the treatment of hepatitis.
Arbidol is an antiviral medication that is primarily used for the prevention and treatment of influenza and other respiratory viral infections. It is available in oral and intravenous forms.
The main function of Arbidol is to inhibit viral entry into host cells and block viral replication. It works by preventing the fusion of the viral envelope with the host cell membrane, thus preventing the virus from entering and infecting the cells. Additionally, Arbidol stimulates the activity of the immune system, which helps to fight off the viral infection.
Arbidol has been shown to be effective against a wide range of respiratory viruses, including influenza A and B viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus, and coronavirus. It is particularly effective in preventing the spread of respiratory viral infections in close-contact settings such as schools, households, and healthcare facilities.
Some studies suggest that Arbidol may also have immune-regulatory properties and can help reduce the severity of symptoms and complications associated with viral infections.
It is important to note that Arbidol is not a cure for viral infections, but it can help reduce the duration and severity of the symptoms and prevent the spread of the virus.
