Rimantadine is a derivative of amantadine (Item No. 21364) with antiviral activity. It inhibits recombinant influenza A matrix protein 2 (M2) expressed in X. laevis oocytes (IC50 = 10.8 µM) and recombinant hepatitis C virus (HCV) p7 protein expressed in HEK293 cells (IC50s = 0.7, 24, 1.6, and 3.0 nM for HCV genotypes 1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a, respectively). Rimantadine inhibits cytotoxicity induced by the influenza A strains A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) and A/HK/7/87 (H3N2), but not the influenza B strain B/HK/72, in MDCK cells (EC50s = 18, 0.62, and >500 µM, respectively). It increases the survival rate of mice...
