Abstract

The antiviral drug arbidole reduces influenza and acute respiratory diseases (ARD) in children by 1.5-2 times when given in a dose of 0.1-0.2 g 2-3 or 5 times a week, by making influenza and ARD milder and decreasing their duration by 1.4-2.8 days. Unified regimens for prophylactic use of arbidole in influenza and ARD in children and adults are proposed.
