An antidepressant and a heart drug approved for use in humans may also help treat the deadly Ebola disease, a new study in mice suggests. Researchers screened about 2,600 compounds for their ability to hinder Ebola's activity, and identified 30 drugs that were effective against the virus in a lab dish. Two of the drugs — the antidepressant sertraline and a heart drug called bepridil - appeared particularly promising for their action against Ebola. The drugs appear to inhibit Ebola infection by preventing the genetic material of the virus from getting inside the host's cells.
