Abstract
This report summarizes the findings of a national survey of infectious diseases consultants regarding their use of neuraminidase inhibitors and the status of their planning for an influenza pandemic. The respondents indicated that government stockpiles should be increased, that many have received requests for antiviral medications, and that additional recommendations regarding the appropriate use of antiviral medications would be helpful.
