We tested two approaches to overcoming resistance of influenza A viruses against adamantane derivatives. First, adamantane derivatives that interfere with the ion channel function of the variant M2 protein of amantadine-resistant viruses may prevent drug resistance, if they are used in mixture with amantadine. Second, amantadine acts on the M2 protein (at low concentrations) and indirectly on the hemagglutinin...
