IMPURITIES AVAILABLE FOR 'Idoxuridine'

Omsynth Lifesciences Pvt. Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturer and exporter of Idoxuridine. Idoxuridine is a nucleoside analog antiviral drug primarily used in the treatment of herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, especially herpes simplex keratitis of the eye. It works by incorporating into viral DNA in place of thymidine, leading to faulty DNA replication and inhibition of viral replication. Due to its toxicity to host cells, idoxuridine is used topically rather than systemically. It is available in ophthalmic solutions and ointments for corneal infections. The drug was one of the first antiviral agents developed and paved the way for modern antiviral therapies. Common side effects include local irritation, photophobia, and punctate keratopathy. Idoxuridine is rapidly metabolized and has limited use today, replaced by safer analogs like acyclovir. However, it remains valuable for resistant ocular HSV infections.
