TAMIFLU  (OSELTAMIVIR PHOSPHATE):  Oseltamivir is used to treat symptoms caused by the flu virus (influenza). It helps make the symptoms (such as stuffy nose, cough, sore throat, fever/chills, aches, tiredness) less severe and shortens the recovery time by 1-2 days. This medication may also be used to prevent the flu if you have been exposed to someone who already has the flu (such as a sick household member) or if there is a flu outbreak in the community. Talk to your doctor for more details. This medication works by stopping the flu virus from growing. It is not a substitute for the flu vaccine. (See also Notes section.)   FDA Approval Date: 1999-10-27 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  For the flu I gave tamiflu to my son at 8:30 pm and his fever went down by morning. Gave him his 2nd dose at 9 am and he starting acting funny. I gave him his 3rd dose at 9:30 pm but he didn't want it, so he only got 1/2 the dose and thank god for that because he starting getting a rash and had problems breathing, so who knows what would have happened if he got another dose. I was really skeptical about giving him this in the first place and for good reason. Trust your gut feeling on this medication because it definitely can cause side effects that may not be controllable and scared me to see. I will never use it again! Worst part is I paid to see my son have side effects and worry all night. And I will never recommend this to anyone. M 7 2 days

 1  Influenza A Terrible gas and belching. Abdominal cramps. Mental distress. difficulty sleeping. I didn't finish the prescription. If you take it. Mix it into something as directed. I believe that once the tablet melts open. It creates a hot spot in your stomach. I threw up the first tablet and it was a foamy mass. Not sure the side effects are worth a day or so less flu symptoms. M 56 3 days

 2  Flu My flu is gone but I've continued to take the tamiflu and it's made me extremely nauseous and has given me the worse diarrhea I've experienced. I stopped taking it finally but I still don't feel back to normal and I still have terrible diarrhea. My appetite has changed and I'm very tired. Would not recommend this. I'm over the flu but I still feel sick from something that's supposed to make me feel better, F 19 4 days

 4  influenza b Nausea for myself and husband, vomiting and diarrhea for my 9yr old. Take this medication with food! It makes you feel sick. But I think it is worth it. I had my first dose, then slept for 11hrs overnight, woke up feeling better already. Not giving it to the 9yr old anymore as she reacted too badly. But for me, its making a big difference. F 28 5 days
