Maribavir, sold under the brand name Livtencity, is an antiviral medication used to treat post-transplant cytomegalovirus (CMV).[2] Specifically it is used in cases where ganciclovir, valganciclovir, cidofovir, and foscarnet are not effective.[2] It is taken by mouth.[2]

Common side effects include taste disturbance, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and fatigue.[2] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[2] It is a cytomegalovirus pUL97 kinase inhibitor thus blocks virus replication.[2][3]

Maribavir was approved for medical use in the United States in 2021.[2] As of 2022 it has been recommended for approval in Europe.[4] In the United States 4 weeks costs about 25,000 USD as of 2022.[5]
