So, researchers wanted to know if a combination of drugs could prevent that from happening.<\/p>\n
A study conducted by the University of Paris compared several different drugs to battle flu symptoms.\u00a0 About 540 patients took part in this study.\u00a0 Some were given Tamiflu, others took Relenza, an inhaled drug that works in a manner similar to Tamiful.\u00a0 A\u00a0 third group took a combination of the two drugs.\u00a0 The results showed combining drugs was less effective.<\/p>\n
Tamiflu showed the most effective results, although Relenza did work for patients as well.<\/p>\n

\nWhat you should know about Tamiflu<\/strong>
\nTamiflu can be prescribed to adults and children over the age of one to deal with the flu.\u00a0 The drug can help prevent the flu and can also treat patients suffering with symptoms within a day or two of feeling rundown.<\/p>\n
