Oseltaflu 75mg Capsule is an antiviral medication primarily used for the treatment and prevention of influenza A and B. It belongs to a class of drugs known as neuraminidase inhibitors, which help to reduce the severity and duration of flu symptoms.

In addition to its role in flu treatment, this capsule can also be used for post-exposure prevention in individuals who have come into close contact with a flu patient when influenza viruses are circulating in the community.

Before starting this medication, consult your doctor about the correct dosage and treatment duration. Inform your doctor of any pre-existing medical conditions or ongoing medications. If you experience any side effects, notify your doctor immediately. For best results, complete the prescribed course of medication.

Oseltaflu 75mg Capsule is used for:

Treatment of Influenza: Helps in reducing the severity and duration of flu symptoms when taken within 48 hours of symptom onset.
Prevention of Influenza: Used to prevent flu infection in individuals exposed to influenza patients.

Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water.
Do not crush, chew, or break the capsule.
