Cidofovir

Cidofovir is an injectable antiviral medication employed in the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in patients diagnosed with AIDS. It suppresses CMV replication through selective inhibition of viral DNA synthesis. It was manufactured by Gilead and initially approved by the FDA in 1996, but has since been discontinued.
