Description
Phosphonoformic acid is phosphoric acid in which one of the hydroxy groups is replaced by a carboxylic acid group. It is used as the trisodium salt as an antiviral agent in the treatment of cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMV retinitis, an inflamation of the retina that can lead to blindness) and as an alternative to ganciclovir for AIDS patients who require concurrent antiretroviral therapy but are unable to tolerate ganciclovir due to haematological toxicity. It has a role as an antiviral drug, a sodium-dependent Pi-transporter inhibitor, a HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitor and a geroprotector. It is a one-carbon compound, a member of phosphonic acids and a carboxylic acid. It is functionally related to a phosphonic acid and a formic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a phosphonatoformate and a phosphonoformate(2-).
