Antiviral in the Covid19 Drug Information Laboratory in Indonesia are Lopinavir/Ritonavir, Favipiravir, Remdemsivir, Oseltamivir, Chloroquine Phosphate and Hydroxychloroquine Phosphate. Therefore it’s necessary to know the basis and management of its use. METHODS : An online systematic search was performed on articles published until March 30, 2020. We use search keywords that are tailored to the purpose of writing. RESULTS : All six antivirals were used for the treatment of RNA virus. Chloroquine, Hidroxychloroquine and Remdesivir effectively control the SARS-CoV2 virus invitro. Lopinavir/Ritonavir, Hydroxychloroquine, Oseltamivir have been used clinically for the treatment of SARS-CoV2 virus. In 2020, there are 42 clinical trials of 6 antivirals. Guidance of the antivirus are from 3 China, Belgium and Indonesia. Its differences based on the patient's condition. CONCLUSIONS : There is a lack of evidence of six antiviral effectiveness against the SARS-CoV2 virus. It have been used for other RNA viruses. It is supported by a safety profile.
