Using strategy of drug repurposing, antiviral agents against influenza A virus (IAV) and newly emerging SARS‐coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2, also as 2019‐nCoV) could be quickly screened out. A previously reported engineered replication‐competent PR8 strain carrying luciferase reporter gene (IAV‐luc) and multiple pseudotyped IAV and SARS‐CoV‐2 virus was used. To specifically evaluate the pH change of vesicles containing IAV, we constructed an A549 cell line with endosomal and lysosomal expression of pHluorin2. Here, we identified azithromycin (AZ) as an effective inhibitor against multiple IAV and SARS‐CoV‐2 strains. We found that AZ treatment could potently inhibit IAV infection in vitro. Moreover, using pseudotyped virus model, AZ could also markedly block the entry of SARS‐CoV‐2 in HEK293T‐ACE2 and Caco2 cells. Mechanistic studies further revealed that such effect was independent of interferon signalling. AZ treatment neither impaired the binding and internalization of IAV virions, nor the viral replication, but rather inhibited the fusion between viral and vacuolar membranes. Using a NPC1‐pHluorin2 reporter cell line, we confirmed that AZ treatment could alkalize the vesicles containing IAV virions, thereby preventing pH‐dependent membrane fusion. Overall, our findings demonstrate that AZ can exert broad‐spectrum antiviral effects against IAV and SARS‐CoV‐2, and could be served as a potential clinical anti‐SARS‐CoV‐2 drug in emergency as well as a promising lead compound for the development of next‐generation anti‐IAV drugs. Azithromycin inhibits infection of multiple IAV subtypes and SARS‐CoV‐2 pseudovirus with spike mutations. Azithromycin neither impairs the binding and internalization of IAV virions, nor the viral replication, but rather inhibits the membrane fusion. Using the NPC1‐pHluorin2 reporter cell line, we confirmed that azithromycin treatment alkalizes the vesicles containing IAV virions, thereby preventing pH‐dependent membrane fusion.
