How it works
It is considered that Favipiravir is metabolized in cells to a ribosyl triphosphate form (Favipiravir RTP) and that Favipiravir RTP selectively inhibits RNA polymerase involved in influenza viral replication. With regards to the activity against human DNA polymerases alpha, beta and gamma, Favipiravir RTP (1000 µmol/L) showed no inhibitory effect on alpha , 9.1-13.5% inhibitory effect on beta and 11.7-41.2% inhibitory effect on gamma . Inhibitory concentration (IC50) of Favipiravir RTP on human RNA polymerase II was 905 µmol/L.
