The Public Health Agency of Canada’s (PHAC) recommendation is that antivirals be used to treat H1N1 Flu Virus when the illness is moderate to severe and the patient is at a great risk for complications. PHAC is not recommending that antivirals be given for a mild disease or on a preventive basis at this time.
