Certain TCM formulas and active constituents, such as [specific examples if available], show promising antiviral and immunomodulatory effects.
Interpretation:
The findings suggest that TCM could provide effective complementary strategies for influenza prevention and treatment, potentially reducing reliance on antiviral drugs and enhancing overall treatment efficacy.
Limitations:
The review is narrative and may not capture all relevant studies, potentially limiting the depth of analysis.
Focus on literature from specific databases may limit comprehensiveness.
Conclusion:
Exploring TCM's antiviral mechanisms offers novel insights for influenza prevention and treatment strategies, highlighting its importance in modern medical approaches.
