INDICATION
Edoxudine was used in Europe, in the form of a topical antiviral, for the treatment of human herpes keratitis.[A32643] Human herpes keratitis is an inflammation of the cornea in the eye caused by herpes simplex virus infection. This infection is a cause of significant morbidity whose incidence is significantly increased in the presence of recurrent infection and it can even produce corneal blindness.[A32645]; ; Edoxudine 3% cream was also indicated for the treatment of dermal herpes simplex virus.[A32643] This virus can produce an infection ubiquitously and it is highly contagious. There are two types of herpes virus, type 1 that is mainly transmitted by oral-to-oral contact and type 2 that is sexually transmitted.[L2411]

DESCRIPTION
Edoxudine (Epoxudine), an antiviral drug, is an analogue of thymidine and shows effectiveness against the herpes simplex virus. Edoxudine is used as a 5-fluorouracil (FU) modulator. Edoxudine may be used to enhance the therapeutic index of 5-FU by reducing the catabolism, prolonging the plasma and intratumoral concentrations of 5-FU, and offering protection to normal organs by increasing the endogenous uridine levels. It can also enhance the antitumour action of 5-FU.
