Antiviral drugs are a class of medicines particularly used for the treatment of viral infections. Drugs that combat viral infections are called antiviral drugs. Acyclovir (ACV) has a novel, highly selective biological activity which results in the inhibition of herpes virus replication at concentrations 300–3000-fold lower than those that will inhibit mammalian cellular functions. Viruses are among the major pathogenic agents that cause number of serious diseases in humans, animals and plants. Antiviral drugs that directly target the viruses include the inhibitors of virus attachment, inhibitors of virus entry, uncoating inhibitors, polymerase inhibitors, protease inhibitors, inhibitors of nucleoside and nucleotide reverse transcriptase and the inhibitors of integrase. Acyclovir is available in different dosage forms in the market such in the form of tablets , capsules, syrups, creams etc.
