Rimantadine, also known as Flumadine

Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

Better Known as: Flumadine

  • Marketed By: Forest Labs
  • Major Indication: Influenza Infection
  • Drug Class: M2 Proton Channel Inhibitor
  • Date of FDA Approval (Patent Expiration): 1993 (2001)
  • 1994 Sales: N/A
  • Importance: One of the the first treatments for Influenza Infections. Since 1994, nearly 100% of influenza viruses had developed resistance to rimantadine, and it is no longer recommended as a treatment for the flu.
  • The following is a list of Pharmacokinetic Parameters. See: Pharmaceutical Drugs for more information
