Livestock ecology and economy are threatened by foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) caused by FMD-virus. Especially with natural herbal compounds, this difficulty remains. Overcoming this issue requires the discovery of herbal therapeutic ingredients, especially flavonoids. An herbaceous plant called Ageratum conyzoides may solve this problem. This work examines the in silico suppression of RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase (RdRp) and 3Cpro FMDV by A. conyzoides flavonoid compounds as FMD antivirals. This study used precocene I, II, 5-methoxynobiletin, lycopsamine, sinensetin, eupalestin, quercetin, kaempferol, 5,6,7,8,3',5'-hexamethoxyflavone, and isoflavone glycosides. Potential compounds were then assessed for Lipinski druglikeness, ADME, and toxicity prediction. The results showed that six compounds could synergistically inhibit RdRp and 3Cpro, with binding values -6.9 kcal/mol to -7.5 kcal/mol lower than ribavirin, the control drug. Lipinski's druglikeness analysis implies oral drug potential for the six substances. As an FMD-antiviral candidate, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADMET) analysis is also positive. Further research is needed to determine anti-FMD potential.
