Mechanism

Oseltamivir is converted in the body to its active metabolite, which inhibits the neuraminidase enzyme of influenza viruses. Neuraminidase plays an important role in the release and spread of newly formed influenza virus particles from infected cells. By inhibiting this enzyme, Oseltamivir interferes with the release and spread of influenza viruses within the body, thereby helping limit viral propagation.
