TRIFLURIDINE
Ophthalmic antivirals are a specialized class of topical ocular anti-infective formulations—including solutions, gels, and ointments—designed to treat viral infections of the eye.
Agents within this class, such as trifluridine, ganciclovir, and acyclovir, function primarily as nucleoside analogues that selectively inhibit viral DNA polymerase or incorporate into viral DNA, halting viral replication and spread.
Clinically, these agents are indicated for the management of anterior segment viral diseases, most notably acute epithelial keratitis and keratoconjunctivitis caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2).
