Do not take any other medications concomitantly with Virenza 5 mg Rotacap unless suggested by the doctor.

Germs from coughs and sneezes spread the flu and can live on hands and surfaces for 24 hours. Wash your hands frequently with warm water and soap to decrease the spread of the flu. When you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue (if you don't have a tissue, cough or sneeze into the bend of your elbow, not your hand). Tissues should be disposed of as soon as feasible.

Zanamivir may not be suitable if you have a breathing problem (such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) Or have recently taken the Flu vaccine.
