What is Amantrel?
Amantrel containing the active ingredient amantadine hydrochloride is an antiviral type of medication. It works by blocking the actions of certain viruses in the body. It is used to treat respiratory infections caused by the influenza A virus. The medication can help lessen the severity of the symptoms and shorten the length of time for recovery. Some patients may also use the medication to treat conditions related to Parkinson’s disease.

How is Amantrel used?
Amantrel should be taken once or twice per day as soon as flu symptoms begin or as directed by a doctor. The capsules can be taken with or without food but should be taken with a full glass of water. To prevent insomnia, the medication should be taken several hours before bedtime. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage as it will depend on the patient’s condition and their response to the medication. Do not discontinue the medication without consulting a doctor as abruptly stopping the medication may cause the condition to return and become harder to treat.
