Reviews

Pauline
Arbidol is liked because it just prevents the onset of symptoms. It is better to do prophylaxis by taking a course of the drug before the flu season, but even if you get sick it still helps quickly and effectively.
Helena
I gave it to my son during the autumn epidemic of colds in kindergarten. About 50% of our group got sick with temperature. On the recommendation of a friend, the pediatrician decided to give an antiviral, so as not to pick up the infection, to support the immune system. Excellent result. No signs of a cold for the entire period of this epidemic.
