Sources differ on what powers werewolves are supposed to have. The
only thing we know for sure is that they turn into murderous beasts at
full moon (according to Fantastic Beasts & WTFT). We don't know if
they're immune to magic and we can't even be quite sure about the
silver issue in JKR's universe until she chooses to tell us

Remus with or without the Wolfsbane: The big problem would (IMO) be
that if he doesn't keep his human mind, he won't be able to tell
friends and enemies apart, he'll be dangerous to *anyone*. The
werewolf would go for the closest human throat (and BTW, we want the
Death Eaters defeated, not turned into werewolves). (IMO again) Sirius
underestimating what a werewolf can do was probably one of the things
that lead to "The Prank".
