Synthetic Anti-infective Drugs

Synthetic anti-infective drugs are chemically engineered compounds designed to prevent, treat, and cure infections caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Unlike natural anti-infectives, which are derived from organisms like molds or plants, synthetic anti-infectives are created through chemical synthesis, allowing for precise manipulation of their molecular structure to enhance efficacy, stability, and safety. These drugs include antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, and antiparasitics, each targeting specific pathogens or mechanisms of infection. Synthetic anti-infectives work by disrupting critical processes within the pathogens, such as cell wall synthesis, protein production, nucleic acid replication, or metabolic pathways, thereby inhibiting their growth or killing them outright.
