What are the treatment medications for influenza A and influenza B?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Guo Xiheng
Antiviral medications for influenza A and B: For patients already infected with influenza A or B virus, doctors may prescribe antiviral drugs that inhibit viral replication and promote viral clearance, helping patients recover more quickly. The commonly used antiviral medication is oseltamivir phosphate. Antipyretic medications: For patients infected with influenza A or B virus who have fever, antipyretic drugs such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can be taken to reduce body temperature.
