Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an antiviral agent against AIDS-causative virus, effective in suppressing the infection of cell with AIDS-causative virus and the development to ARC (AIDS related complex) and remedying AIDS by using indocyanine green as an active component. CONSTITUTION:The objective antiviral agent contains indocyanine green of formula (a tricarbocyanine-type dye) as an active component. The compound of formula has low toxicity and an action to inhibit the reverse transcriptase and other mechanisms. The compound is effective in suppressing the infection of cell with AIDS-causative virus and/or the development to ARC and further to AIDS and is useful for the remedy of AIDS. The effective dose of the component is 43muM. Since an antiviral action against HIV(human immunodeficiency virus) was found at the dose, the compound is expected to be effective at the same order of concentration in human blood, namely, the effect is expected at a dose of 2 mg to 1g/60kg body-weight. It is administered in the form of injection, capsule, etc.

It is known that AIDS develops through AIDS. As a result, the immune system of the body is weakened, leading to opportunistic infections such as Kaposi's sarcoma, carinii pneumonia, Cancissa infection, Aspergillus infection, and amoebic colitis.To date, AZT is known as a drug that suppresses the proliferation of HIV. It's just that.
