Overview

Even though smallpox has been eradicated, there are undergoing studies to identify effective antiviral drugs against smallpox virus due to the potential of an outbreak as a result of bioterrorism.

Future or Investigational Therapies

Since the eradication of the smallpox virus, several antiviral drugs have been studied combating orthopox viruses in general, including:[1]

  • Cidofovir
  • Poxvirus protease inhibitors
  • Compounds targeting host's intracellular pathways
  • Currently being studied[6]
