Get Flumadine Online

Flumadine (rimantadine) is an antiviral prescription medication approved for the treatment and prophylaxis of influenza A virus infection in adults. It is not effective against influenza B.

Rimantadine blocks the M2 ion channel protein on the surface of influenza A virions. This prevents the virus from releasing its genetic material inside host cells, stopping it from replicating and spreading.

Flumadine works best when started within 48 hours of the onset of flu symptoms. Starting treatment later may reduce its effectiveness at shortening illness duration.

Common side effects include nausea, insomnia, dizziness, and loss of appetite. Most side effects are mild and tend to resolve as your body adjusts. Contact your physician if side effects are severe or persistent.

No. Flumadine is only active against influenza A. It has no activity against influenza B. Additionally, resistance to adamantane antivirals has been documented in some circulating influenza A strains, so your physician will consider local resistance patterns when prescribing.

Yes. Rimantadine is approved for prophylaxis of influenza A in adults, meaning it can be prescribed to help prevent infection in people who have been exposed to influenza A or are at high risk during an outbreak. A flu vaccine remains the primary prevention strategy.

Flumadine should be used with caution or avoided in people with a history of hypersensitivity to rimantadine or amantadine, those with severe hepatic or renal impairment, and those with a history of seizures. Your Doctronic physician will review your medical history to determine suitability.
