Abstract
The article discusses the approaches to the management of patients with acute respiratory viral infections (ARI) in therapeutic practice. The basic rules for examination and treatment of ARI patients that should predetermine physicians/general practitioners actions are presented. Treatment success is largely determined by a careful interpretation of clinical data, identification of risk factors for complications, as well as rational symptomatic therapy.
