Valganciclovir is a mono-valyl ester prodrug of ganciclovir that is orally bioavailable and is well absorbed in the gastrointestinal system. Valganciclovir is an antiviral compound that, like ganciclovir, is an analog of 2’-deoxy-guanosine that is incorporated into DNA by viral DNA polymerase, preventing chain elongation. This compound is used to treat cytomegalovirus (CMV) in newborns and adults and may also exhibit benefit in the treatment of Kaposi sarcoma flares. TEST!!!!!!
