oseltamivir phosphate

A prodrug of oseltamivir carboxylate, an inhibitor of neuraminidase enzymes on the surface of influenza viruses. These enzymes are essential for the release of the viruses from infected cells and thus the proliferation throughout the body. The drug is used to treat and prevent influenza A and B. A brand name is Tamiflu. Resistance to this drug from mutations of the neuraminidase gene was reported in 2003.
