Ganciclovir based drugs: price, availability and description

Ganciclovir is a potent antiviral medication and a synthetic analogue of 2'-deoxy-guanosine. It inhibits the replication of herpes viruses by integrating into viral DNA and terminating its synthesis. The primary indication for Ganciclovir is the treatment and prevention of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections, which pose a severe risk to immunocompromised patients (e.g., those with AIDS or organ transplant recipients). It is also used to treat acute herpetic keratitis.
