Neuraminidase inhibitors are effective and safe in reducing influenza complications: meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

CONCLUSIONS: NAIs are effective in reducing time to clinical resolution, total influenza-related complications, otitis media, and need of antibiotic administration. Reductions on mortality, pneumonia, asthma exacerbations or hospitalization rates only did demonstrate a trend benefit in favor of NAIs. The only significant AE is the increased occurrence of nausea and vomiting. PMID: 33358065 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
