Influenza Medicines

Influenza medicines are used to treat and manage symptoms of the flu virus, aiming to reduce the duration and severity of illness. These medications are often antiviral drugs that work by inhibiting the replication of the influenza virus. They are most effective when taken shortly after symptoms begin. In addition to antiviral treatments, supportive care with over-the-counter medications can help alleviate symptoms such as fever, body aches, and congestion.
