Riamilovir Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Riamilovir is a guanine nucleotide analog antiviral originally developed in Russia that has shown efficacy against influenza A and B, including the H5N1 strain. It appears that Riamilovir has shown promise in reducing influenza disease severity and associated complications. Given the similarities between SARS-CoV-2 and H5N1, health officials are investigating Riamilovir as an option to combat SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for COVID-19.
