About Mcosvir Suspension

Mcosvir Suspension contains a class of antiviral medication, oseltamivir, which is used to treat viral infections. It plays a vital role in treating symptoms caused by the influenza virus. It is used to treat cough, stuffy nose, sore throat, chills/fevers, and tiredness. The flu is caused by the influenza virus, which infects the lungs, throat, and nose. Influenza is a severe disease. Several diseases that keep people at higher risk include asthma, liver and kidney disease, heart disease, diabetes. Mcosvir Suspension contains oseltamivir, which is an antiviral medication. It blocks the enzyme present on the surface of a virus that helps the viruses enter uninfected cells of the body to cause influenza infection in the body. As a result, this stops the proliferation of viruses and produces new viruses, slowly leading to the viral infection clearing up.

Influenza or flu is produced by a virus that causes respiratory disease. It is highly infectious and easily spreads through the sneezes and coughs of an infected person. Influenza can be transmitted easily through touch. Adults can start circulating the virus 2 days before the symptoms start showing up.
