What are the Strategies to Combat Antiviral Drug Resistance?

Several strategies are employed to combat antiviral drug resistance, including:

Rational use of antivirals: Prescribing antiviral drugs judiciously to minimize the development of resistance.
Combination therapy: Using multiple antiviral agents to reduce the likelihood of resistance.
Surveillance programs: Monitoring the prevalence of resistance to inform public health strategies.
Vaccination: Preventing infections through vaccination reduces the need for antiviral drugs.
Research and development: Investing in new antiviral drugs and resistance-modifying agents.
