title: [Effectiveness of remantadine in outpatients during a period of epidemic outbreaks of influenza A and B].
abstract: Extensive clinical data demonstrate that the use of remantadine for the treatment of ambulant influenza patients during the epidemic of influenza, types A and B, proved to be effective, which was manifested by an essential increase in the number of complications, mainly in the respiratory organs, and by a reduced length of the disease. The positive result of the curative action of remantadine is believed to be connected with the simultaneous wide circulation of type A (H1N1) and (H3N2) influenza viruses.
