It is my understading that technically all medication is "chemo"... chemotherapeutics, it's just that the term is more commonly related to cancer fighting agents.  However, generally, Ribavirin  is usually known as an anti-viral as it is not  used as a cancer fighting agent whereas  Interferon is commonly referred to as "chemo" as it is used in the fight of serval different cancers including but not limite to kidney cancer.
