Amantadine Hydrochloride Oral Solution 50mg/5 mL is a medication used to treat Parkinson's disease and certain types of flu infections. It contains the active ingredient amantadine hydrochloride, which works by increasing the levels of dopamine in the brain. This helps to improve muscle control and reduce symptoms such as tremors and stiffness in individuals with Parkinson's disease. In cases of flu infection, amantadine hydrochloride can help to prevent or reduce symptoms by inhibiting the growth of the influenza virus. It is available in a concentration of 50mg of amantadine hydrochloride per 5 mL of oral solution.

Frequently Asked Questions for Antiviral Medications
  • What are Antiviral Medications?

    Antiviral medications are drugs specifically designed to prevent or treat viral infections by inhibiting the development and multiplication of viruses in the body. Unlike antibiotics (which treat bacteria), antivirals target viruses, which are much smaller infectious agents.

  • How Do Antiviral Medications Work?

    Antiviral drugs work by: Preventing viruses from entering or attaching to host cells Inhibiting viral replication (stopping the virus from making copies of itself) Blocking enzymes the virus needs to multiply Boosting the immune response to the virus They do not typically kill viruses outright but limit their ability to multiply and spread.

  • Are antiviral medications available over the counter?

    Most antiviral medications require a prescription from a healthcare provider, as they are used to treat specific viral infections and should be taken under medical supervision.

    For some viruses, antiviral medications may be prescribed as a preventive measure after exposure or to protect high-risk individuals, but this should always be done under a healthcare provider’s guidance.

    It is important to buy antiviral medications only from established medical suppliers like Mountainside Medical Equipment to ensure the safety and authenticity of your medication.
