Inclusion Criteria: * Ambulatory male and female adults aged 65 years and older. * Elderly adults in good health, as determined by vital signs (heart rate less than 100 bpm, blood pressure \[systolic less than or equal to 160 mm Hg and diastolic less than or equal to 90 mm Hg\], oral temperature less than or equal to 37.7 degrees C and SpO2 of at least 95%), stable medical condition and a full physical examination. A stable medical condition is defined as no change in medication, dose, or frequency of medication in the last 1 month; health outcomes of the specific disease are considered to be within acceptable limits in the last 6 months; and no unplanned hospitalizations within the last 3 months (hospitalizations for minor elective procedures may be considered for inclusion on a case by case basis following discussion between the Investigator and the DMID Medical Monitor). * Female subjects must be surgically sterile or post-menopausal (defined by a measurement of follicle stimulating hormone \[FSH\] greater than 18 mlU/mL and serum oestradiol less than 110 pmol/L (or 30 pg/mL), or by 24 consecutive months of amenorrhoea for which there is no other obvious pathological cause) and have a negative serum pregnancy test. * No clinically significant abnormality in the ECG. QTc must be less than 450 ms and PR 120-209 ms. Any ECGs considered abnormal will be reviewed and approved by an independent cardiologist, (normal variants such as sinus arrhythmia and sinus bradycardia do no need to be independently reviewed). * Negative results in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antibody, Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and Hepatitis C antibody tests. * Negative results in urine drug screen and alcohol breath test. * Able to understand and comply with all planned study procedures including ability to perform respiratory testing and use the inhaler device after training. * Provide informed consent prior to any study procedures and is available for all study visits. Exclusion Criteria: * A Grade 2 biochemistry, hematology or urinalysis abnormal finding as defined in the Appendix to the protocol. Subjects with a Grade 1 biochemistry, hematology or urinalysis abnormality will be considered for inclusion on a case by case basis following discussion between the Investigator and the DMID Medical Monitor. * Has any malignancy (excluding nonmelanotic skin cancer) or lymphoproliferative disorder diagnosed or treated actively during the past 5 years. * A history or clinical evidence of hepatic disease, including abnormal laboratory values for AST, ALT or total bilirubin or abnormal laboratory values for potassium. * A history or clinical evidence of hematological abnormalities; specifically abnormal laboratory values for hemoglobin, platelets, WBC or neutrophils. * A history or clinical evidence of renal disease; specifically abnormal laboratory values for serum creatinine. * A history or clinical evidence of ventricular arrhythmias, or any subject with an implantable defibrillator. * A history or clinical evidence of significant respiratory disease (including asthma, hyper-reactive lung disease, COPD \[on oral steroids or with chronic bronchitis\], cystic fibrosis and/or recurrent lower respiratory tract infection, pneumonectomy or pulmonary insufficiency requiring home O2) and/or upper respiratory tract infection within the last 3 weeks or lower respiratory tract infection within the last 3 months. * Any diagnosis of dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease) or current treatment for dementia (e.g. Aricept), or a mini mental state score of less than or equal to 25 at Screening. * A Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form (GDS-SF) score of greater than or equal to 6 (out of a total possible score of 15) at Screening, or a history or clinical evidence of endogenous depression, or a history or clinical evidence or treatment of exogenous depression within 1 year prior to enrollment in this study. * A score of less than or equal to 16 out of 20 in the Clock Drawing Test (CDT) on Day 0. * Has an acute or chronic medical condition that in the opinion of the Investigator would interfere with the evaluation of response. * Is using parenteral or oral steroids, inhaled medications, anticoagulants, immune modulators (oral or topical) or other immunosuppressive or cytotoxic drugs within 2 weeks prior to enrolment in this study. * Has received any other neuraminidase inhibitor within 2 weeks prior to enrollment in this study. * A history or clinical evidence of dizziness with unknown cause. * History of severe adverse reaction or hypersensitivity to lactose or neuraminidase inhibitors. * Intake of any investigational drug product within 4 months prior to the intake of investigational product (Day 1). * Receipt of blood or blood products or loss of 450 mL or more of blood during the last 3 months before screening. * Has a clinically significant history of alcohol abuse or drug abuse. * Body Mass Index (BMI) less than 18.5 kg/m2 or greater than 32.0 kg/m2. * FEV1 less than or equal to 85%, FEV1.0% less than or equal to 70%, and/or FVC less than or equal to 80% of the predicted value, as calculated from standard age and height formula. If the first assessment is borderline then 2 further assessments may be made, both of which must have values above these criteria for the subject to be eligible. * Subjects who smoke or have been non-smokers for less than 6 months prior to Screening. * Subjects who were previously enrolled in this study. * Poor veins or fear of venipuncture or sight of blood.
