Application
Ribavirin EP Reference standard, intended for use in laboratory tests only as specifically prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Antiviral agent used against a wide variety of human viral infections, in particular, chronic hepatitis C, HIV, and adenovirus. Its metabolite, ribavirin 5′-phosphate, is an inhibitor of inosine monophosphate (IMP) dehydrogenase, but many other mechanisms of action are also supported with experimental evidence.
