    AbstractThis article is a review of this winter's common infections and their treatments. As infectious agents become more aggressive and more resistant, new medications are needed to fight them. The recent outbreak of the H1N1 ("swine flu") influenza strain has increased, by several-fold, the use of the oral antiviral Tamiflu (oseltamivir) and Relenza (zenavimir). -As resistant skin and soft-tissue infections increase in frequency, the use of newer antibiotics is becoming more common. This article reviews the use and cutaneous side effects of antivirals and new antibiotics with a focus on those relevant to the dermatologist.
