Fluvir 75mg Capsule works to keep the flu virus from spreading within the body. Influenza, also known as the flu, is a viral infection. This medication should only be taken as directed by a doctor. It should be taken in the dose and for the duration prescribed by your doctor.

Tell your doctor if you have any heart, liver, or kidney problems before taking it. Consuming alcohol may increase your risk of liver damage. Before using this medication, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor.
