Stroke remains one of the main socially significant problems in the healthcare in the third millennium. The lethality in persons with history of stroke by the end of the 1st year of disease is high. A trend to increased frequency of stroke in the young age is observed during the last decade; third of patients is working-age individuals, out of whom only 15-20% returns to labor, and others remain disabled persons requiring constant medical and social support

The study will collect the information on clinical effects and safety of the basic therapy of acute respiratory viral infection (ARVI) + Cycloferone® and basic therapy of ARVI1 + Arbidol® in real-life clinical settings.

Influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections remain practically uncontrollable diseases due to the high variability of the antigenic structure of influenza viruses and the heterogeneity of pathogens of acute respiratory infections. Therefore, for the prevention and treatment of influenza, acute respiratory viral infections and herpes infections, it is relevant to develop drugs - immunomodulators that mobilize the reserves of nonspecific and specific immune systems and enhance the effects of these systems against the pathogens. The drug CYCLOFERON, 150 mg, enteric-coated tablets, contains the active substance meglumine acridone acetate, which is an interferon inducer. Interferons are the most important system of innate immunity, which has antiviral and immunomodulatory effects, and can protect the body from infection with a virus, and in case of infection, fight the causative agent of the disease. The planned clinical trial of the efficacy and safety of the drug CYCLOFERON in the dosage form of a tablet will study its ability to prevent influenza and other respiratory viral infections in adults who have already had close contact with patients with manifest disease.
