General Description
Ribavirin is an antiviral medication used to treat Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, hepatitis C and some viral hemorrhagic fevers. Common side effects include feeling tired, headache, nausea, fever, muscle pains, and an irritable mood. Serious side effects include red blood cell breakdown, liver problems, and allergic reactions. Use during pregnancy results in harm to the baby. Prior to 2005, the Food and Drug Administration banned the use of human antiviral drugs in livestock. China also banned the use of ribavirin in animal feed. The abuse of ribavirin during the rearing of chickens may affect the quality of chicken meat and lead to bacterial resistance and medicine residues, which may affect human health and damage the ecological balance via the food chain. (Ribavirin. The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists., 2016)
