The harms of long-term use of ribavirin are as follows: 1. The abnormal effects on the blood circulatory system, including the decline of blood cells, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, etc., will appear in different quantities, leading to the possibility of anemia. 2. For the damage caused by liver function, because ribavirin is mainly metabolized through the liver, for patients with underlying diseases, the damage to the liver will be aggravated and accelerated.

3. It will induce heart damage, resulting in symptoms such as palpitation and chest tightness. 4. Damage to other parts of various organs, such as tiredness, headache, insomnia, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, etc. Ribavirin, as a commonly used antiviral drug, needs to be used under the guidance of a doctor, mainly for symptomatic use, and is not suitable for long-term use.
