Arbidol Facts / Questions and Answers:
(based on published clinical trials and current news reports)



Question: If Arbidol so great why haven't I heard of it before now?

Answer: Good question. Irina Leneva of the State Research Center for Diagnostics and Prevention of Human and Animal Diseases pointed to a combination of big pharmaceutical companies and the US bureaucratized system for qualifying drugs. One company, Searle, planned to introduce Arbidol to the US in 1992. The rumor in the industry said that they estimated 1 billion dollars to introduce Arbidol to the market and then the US Patent office refused their patent.
