AbstractTWO WELL-KNOWN AGENTS: Although the activity of amantadin and rimantadin against type A Myxovirus influenzae are well known, use is still limited. These agents only have a moderate curative effect and, though they are more effective for prophylaxis, can only be used in cases with a certain positive diagnosis, which is difficult to obtain. In addition, questions remain concerning tolerance which is not always excellent, particularly for amantadin.
