Interaction

May interact with immunosuppressants — possible antagonism of therapeutic effect

Cold / flu duration & severity
Moderate
Population: Adults with upper respiratory infections
Study type: Meta-analyses of RCTs
Dose context: 800 mg typical (range: 600–1200 mg) • Duration: During illness (3–5 days)

Reduces cold/flu duration by ~2 days & severity; best evidence for acute use at illness onset.
