The syrup contains 60% sucrose, which should be taken into account when prescribing the drug to patients with diabetes mellitus. The emergence of drug-resistant viruses is possible. |
Interaction | When used together, Orvirem reduces the effectiveness of antiepileptic drugs. When taken simultaneously, adsorbents, astringents and coating agents reduce the absorption of rimantadine. Medicines that acidify urine (acetazolamide, sodium bicarbonate) increase the effectiveness of rimantadine due to a decrease in its excretion by the kidneys. When used together, acetylsalicylic acid, paracetamol reduce the Cmax value of rimantadine by 11%. Cimetidine reduces the clearance of rimantadine by 18%. |
pharmachologic effect | Antiviral drug. Rimantadine is an adamantane derivative; active against various strains of influenza A virus (especially type A2). As a weak base, rimantadine acts by raising the pH of endosomes, which have a membrane of vacuoles and surround viral particles after they have entered the cell. Prevention of acidification in these vacuoles blocks the fusion of the viral envelope with the endosome membrane, thus preventing the transfer of viral genetic material into the cytoplasm of the cell. Rimantadine also inhibits the release of viral particles from the cell, i.e. interrupts the transcription of the viral genome. The appointment of rimantadine for 2-3 days before and 6-7 hours after the onset of clinical manifestations of type A influenza reduces the incidence, severity of symptoms of the disease and the degree of serological reaction. Some therapeutic effect may also occur if rimantadine is administered within 18 hours of the onset of the first flu symptoms. |

Advantages:
Works! there were no complications after the disease!
Disadvantages:
may be too sweet for some
Comment:
The medicine will work when it is taken correctly and on time!) my oldest child suffers from chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract, then any cold for us ends in complications. One day, our pediatrician discharged Orvirem. Precisely in order to reduce the consequences! And this is our salvation! no pneumonia, tracheitis and lingering cough! You just need to have time to give the child on the first day of the disease and strictly according to the scheme! By the way, I noticed that when taking Orvirem, the child does not get sick "lying down". No hellish temperature. The child plays, eats. The taste is specific, of course. But my children do not refuse)

Advantages:
my personal opinion: my personal opinion: I like orvirem because it is effective against various diseases - it affects both the flu and ARVI. I am sure of this - since my children had a high fever, it looked like the flu and just got sick with a runny nose and a temperature of 37.9 and always rescued us with orvirem. on day 2-3, as if nothing had happened. At the same time, as I read in the instructions, it has a triple effect - a direct antiviral effect + strengthens the immune system (not strongly stimulating the child's own powers, unlike ferons and immunostimulants) + helps to strengthen local immunity (if I understood correctly, it stimulates on the mucous membranes of the nose and oral cavity what is a protein - which reduces the ability of the virus to enter the cells of the body). I am personally opposed to direct immunostimulants. so I choose Orvirem
Disadvantages:
I read about rare allergic reactions, but we have not had it in 4 years of use
Comment:
dosing regimen is simple. the most important thing is to start taking it on the first day of the baby's illness.
