Perhaps life will soon become easier and calmer. Russian scientists have created three drugs for coronavirus, which the Ministry of Health has already become interested in.
In Russia, three drugs have been developed that can potentially be used to treat coronavirus. This was reported to RIA Novosti by the vice-president and head of the section of biomedical sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences, academician Vladimir Chekhonin.
The man said that several years ago, at the Institute of Organic Synthesis named after the Postovsky Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, they created an antiviral drug triazavirin, which his Chinese colleagues are now interested in, as it can help in the treatment of COVID-19.
“Today a special, inhaled form of this drug is ready, which can be used exclusively for the treatment of a respiratory viral infection. I am confident that it will be more acceptable for the treatment of COVID-19 infection. And, naturally, this option is extremely important in the current situation, ”Chekhonin said. The medicine can be submitted for testing in the very near future.
A special scheme for the synthesis of the antiviral drug favipiravir was also created. It was developed in Japan to treat infections caused by RNA viruses, including the ill-fated coronavirus. This drug is also ready to go for testing.
A third drug that can help treat COVID-19 has already passed all the necessary clinical trials. Forteprene was created on the basis of phosprenil – it is used to treat coronavirus infections in animals.
“Forteprene is at the registration stage, after which it can be submitted for testing to check its possible activity against COVID-19,” Chekhonin said.
