HIV is perhaps the best known viral infection with a high impact on the population. Since the first cases in the U.S., an estimated 78 million people have been affected. Since then, drugs have been developed to help fight this infection and, although it cannot be cured, attempts are being made to mitigate its side effects on the body. For all these reasons, it is important that pharmacists continue their academic training to develop new antivirals for this and other respiratory infections. Thus, this program will provide them with the appropriate tools to achieve this purpose.

Introduction to the Program

Antivirals help to mitigate the symptoms caused by viruses in the human body"

This Postgraduate certificate will address, from an empirical perspective, the general elements of antivirals and the latest advances in this area. To this end, we will begin by presenting their classification and the main indications to be considered for their consumption. On the other hand, it is important for students to know the mechanism of action of these drugs, since they are not intended to cure a disease, but to help the body mitigate the effects of viruses in the body.

We will then proceed to evaluate, one by one, the usefulness and recommendations of antivirals for various infections, including hepatitis, respiratory infections, herpes and HIV. The latter has had a major impact on the world's population, affecting an estimated 70 million people since the early years of infection.

On the other hand, the current criteria for the use of interferons, glycoproteins with high antiviral activity that are produced by the body and help in the defense against viruses, will be taken into account. In summary, this program is designed to enhance students' empirical knowledge and help them access new career opportunities in the field of antivirals.
