Generic Tamiflu Information

Common use

Tamiflu suppresses and decreases the spread of influenza A and B viruses. It blocks activity of neuraminidase, the enzyme, which is responsible for the spreading of the flu virus from infected cells to healthy ones. Blocking of the virus propagation stops production of toxins which are responsible for severe symptoms of flu. Tamiflu reduces the duration of symptoms by one and a half days if treatment is started within forty-eight hours of the beginning of symptoms. It may also be given as a prophylactic drug to prevent influenza in people who have contacted the sick but still have not had symptoms.
