Table 2.
Follow-up experiment demonstrating the effects of oral gavage administration of favipiravir and oseltamivir, either alone or in combination, on the survival of mice inoculated with pandemic influenza A/California/04/2009 (H1N1pdm) virus.
| Compound (mg/kg/day) | Oseltamivir (3) | Oseltamivir (1) | Oseltamivir (0) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Favipiravir (100) | 10/10*** (>21) | 10/10*** (>21) | 10/10*** (>21) |
| Favipiravir (30) | 9/10*** (9.0) | 10/10*** (>21) | 4/10* (9.0 ± 2.9) |
| Favipiravir (10) | 10/10*** (>21) | 9/10*** (10.0) | 3/10* (8.1 ± 1.3) |
| Favipiravir (0) | 8/10*** (6.5 ± 0.7) | 6/10** (8.3 ± 1.0) | 0/10 (6.8 ± 0.9) |
Results are demonstrated as survivors/total (mean day of death of mice that died during the 21-day observation period ± standard deviation). The mean day of death test is statistically analyzed only for mice that die. Mean without standard deviation data means only one mouse died. >21 indicates that all of the mice lived through the end of the experiment.
