Neuraminidase inhibitors, such as [oseltamivir](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), [zanamivir](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), and [peramivir](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), work by blocking the function of the viral neuraminidase protein, preventing the release of new virus particles from infected cells. This action helps to reduce the spread of the virus within the body.
