Ribavirin is a synthetic nucleoside analog with broad-spectrum antiviral activity. It is primarily used for the treatment of hepatitis C in combination with other drugs and for severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections in certain populations. Ribavirin is approved for use in combination therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and is also used off-label for other viral infections.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported in healthy adult males after single oral dose.
