What are the medications for influenza A and B in children?

The pharmacological treatment for pediatric influenza A and B primarily involves the use of antiviral medications. In most cases, hepatitis B virus is more likely to cause disease, thus treatments for hepatitis A virus are more commonly used. Antiviral therapy for hepatitis A virus typically includes platinum-based agents (such as iviclopride) or other drugs (such as lamivudine, benzenesulfonamide, etc.). For the treatment of hepatitis B virus, commonly used antiviral medications may include lamivudine, hepatitis B detoxifying agents (such as canmositin), and a class of drugs known as antiviral inhibitors, such as uncoupling agents (e.g., cetirizine). Antiviral treatment usually lasts 6–24 weeks, and patients should take their medication on schedule to ensure effective viral suppression. Additionally, for pediatric patients with influenza A and B, more comprehensive treatment targeting systemic inflammatory symptoms should be provided, including routine use of antibiotics, traditional Chinese medicine with anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects, and antihistamines.
