Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder that predisposes affected individuals to a range of complications, including an increased susceptibility to viral infections. These infections present significant clinical challenges due to the underlying immunocompromised state in SCD patients. This review examines the interaction between viral infections and SCD, highlighting the vulnerabilities and the impact of these infections on morbidity and mortality in this population. Advances in antiviral therapies have significantly improved outcomes, yet managing viral infections in SCD patients requires special consideration due to drug-to-drug interactions, altered pharmacokinetics, and the potential exacerbation of SCD-related complications. Additionally, vaccination strategies against viral infections and the emerging role of prophylactic antiviral treatments are discussed as critical components of infection prevention. By focusing on both established and novel antiviral treatments, this article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the challenges and opportunities in managing viral infections in patients with SCD.
