WHAT TRILASYM SOLUTION IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Trilasym Solution contains the active substance amantadine. This is a
dopaminergic drug, meaning
that it can increase the levels of certain chemicals that transmit
impulses in the nervous system,
including the brain. It is also an antiviral medicine, which works
against influenza A infections by
stopping the virus from reproducing.
Trilasym Solution can be used:
-
to treat Parkinson’s disease by improving muscle control and
reducing stiffness, shakiness and
shuffling
-
to prevent, or treat the signs and symptoms of, certain influenza
(‘flu) infections (type A)
-
to reduce the pain caused by shingles (herpes zoster), a blistering
skin rash caused by the same
virus that causes chickenpox (the varicella zoster virus)

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
_PROPHYLAXIS AND TREATMENT OF SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION CAUSED
BY INFLUENZA A VIRUS_
Trilasym is indicated in patients suffering from clinical influenza in
which complications
might be expected to occur.
Additionally, amantadine is recommended prophylactically in cases
particularly at risk,
including:
-
those with chronic respiratory disease or debilitating conditions;
-
the elderly;
-
those living in crowded conditions;
-
individuals in families where influenza has already been diagnosed,
for control of
institutional outbreaks or for those in essential services who are
unvaccinated or when
vaccination is unavailable or contra-indicated.
Trilasym does not completely prevent the host immune response to
influenza A infection, so
individuals who take this drug still develop immune responses to the
natural disease or
vaccination and may be protected when later exposed to antigenically
related viruses.
Trilasym is also indicated in post-exposure prophylaxis in conjunction
with inactivated
vaccine during an outbreak until protective antibodies develop, or in
patients who are not
expected to have a substantial antibody response (immunosuppression).
