Carbodine
Carbodine (Carbocyclic cytidine) is a broad-spectrum antiviral agent active against DNA viruses, (+) RNA viruses, (-) RNA viruses, paramyxo, rhabdo and (+/-) RNA viruses, targets CTP synthetase that converts UTP to CTP. Carbodine (Carbocyclic cytidine) possesses significant antiviral activity against influenza virus types A0/PR-8/34 and A2/Aichi/2/68 in vitro[1][2].
