Fabiflu is an antiviral medication available in India for treatment of Influenza, Coronavirus, SARS and MERS. It requires Specific Patient Acknowledgement of Risk via written consent because of its high number of serious side effects. Significant caution and medical supervision is advised in elderly persons and it should not be used in patients who are pregnant, have liver or kidney problems.
