If you have a positive test for influenza A or B, yes, there is a medication that is even available within GESY (General Healthcare System) for certain categories of patients. These include pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals over 65 years old, and patients with various chronic health problems such as cardiovascular issues, diabetes, obesity, and others. The medication is called Tamiflu, administered for 5 days, and should be given to the patient within 48-72 hours from the onset of symptoms.
