PURPOSE:To obtain an excellent antiretroviral agent containing an anthracycline based antibiotic substance as an active ingredient with hardly any toxicity. CONSTITUTION:An antiretroviral agent containing an anthracycline based antibiotic substance, such as daunorubicin or doxorubicin, having antitumor activity as an active ingredient. The above-mentioned agent is useful for treating one kind of retroviral AIDS and adult type T cell leukemia. The dose of the antibiotic substance which is a principal ingredient is normally preferably 4-800mg per day for an adult depending on the activity, toxicity, administration route, etc., of the individual drugs. The daunorubicin and doxorubicin exhibit better antiretroviral action than that of azidothymidine or bleomycin. The afore- mentioned agent is effective not only against patients infected with retroviruses but also against carriers without manifesting symptoms.
