Overview
Fluhalt 75mg Capsule contains oseltamivir 75mg, a neuraminidase inhibitor antiviral medicine used to treat and help prevent influenza (the flu) caused by influenza A and B viruses. This capsule formulation is prescribed for patients as determined suitable by your doctor.
Oseltamivir works by blocking the neuraminidase enzyme on the surface of the influenza virus, an enzyme the virus needs to release newly formed viral particles from infected cells. By inhibiting this enzyme, oseltamivir limits the spread of the virus within the respiratory tract, which can reduce the severity and duration of illness when started early.
How it Works
Neuraminidase is an enzyme on the surface of the influenza virus that allows newly formed virus particles to be released from infected cells and spread to other cells in the respiratory tract. Oseltamivir is converted in the body to its active form, which blocks this enzyme, limiting the spread of the virus and helping the body’s immune system bring the infection under control sooner.
Directions for Use
Take Fluhalt 75mg Capsule capsules by mouth, with or without food – taking it with food can reduce nausea. Try to take doses about 12 hours apart to maintain consistent drug levels. Start treatment as early as possible after symptoms begin for the best effect.
Dosage
The usual adult dose of Fluhalt 75mg Capsule for treating influenza is one capsule twice daily for 5 days, started as soon as possible and ideally within 48 hours of symptom onset. For prevention after exposure to someone with influenza, your doctor may prescribe a different frequency and duration. Always complete the full course as prescribed, even if you start to feel better.
