| 1 | Flu | My son started taking it 6 hours later he was no longer happy sick baby he was crabby in pain and terrible insomnia I would never recommend giving your child this drug it does more damage then helps | M | 2 | 1 days | 3/9/2015 | 4 | Influenza B | Dizziness, Headache, Irrational thoughts, oversleeping, | Reduced fever with only one pill. Kicked the flu symptoms immediately. Side effects were trippy. Slept 12 hours every night on these pills. And if I got up in the night, I was dizzy and could barely walk. My fears were irrational and paranoid. The side effects are worth getting rid of the flu. | F | 21 | 5 days 75 mg | 3/8/2015 | 2 | Flu | Insomnia,Burning Skin,Headache | This was my first TAMIFLU usage.I've had the flu before but this year's flu gave me unbearable muscle pain especially in the lower back,rear end,hamstrings and calves. TAMIFLU did relieve most of the muscle discomfort and reduced my high fever.The tradeoff was instant insomnia and I averaged only one to two hours sleep each day I took TAMIFLU.I've never had any sleep issues before this drug.I also experienced headache a few hours after each dosage and intermittent bouts of burning skin over various parts of my body.Given the $100 cost,I'll not take this poison ever again. | M | 68 | 5 days 75 2X day | 3/7/2015 | 4 | Tested positive for flu | Helped me with symptoms but I was still in bed for 4 days with aches. Tamiful gave me a headache and mild stomach upset after 2nd day. Also made me extremely emotional. But over all I'm happy with tamiflu. | My daughter is 8 and was prescribed tamiflu profallictally as she has asthma. Once daily for 10 days. No problems to date. It's been 5 days. | F | 43 | 5 days 75 2x day | 3/6/2015 | 3 | Flu and (exposure to flu patient) | On day 4, lower back pain became unbearable and I did not take day 5's dose... (There are 5 days of doses). The 102 fever broke on day one and I was pleased overall with the medication | The medication did have a favorable effect on my probable flu and I was able to stay on the job without too much issue and even exercise. The backaches on day 4 that are still an issue on day 5 (even being off the medication) remain a concern.... Would I take this again? Well, if there are either important work or personal matters ahead, I might consider risking the back ache side effect. That will depend on of course, that these back pains do subside in a day or so. | M | 60 | 4 days 75 MG 2X day | 3/6/2015 | 1 | flu A | Had severe headache, had attributed that to the flu until reading other posts about the same from the drug. Had nausea but was tolerable, the sleeplessness was not. I sleep easily 8 hrs every night so knew the med was to blame for this. Stopped taking on day 4 and over 48 hrs later I still have a headache and have has severe diarrhea since stopping it. I'll tough out the symptoms sans tamiflu next time for sure. | F | 31 | 5 days | 3/6/2015 | 1 | flu | Out of touch with reality, stomach bloated, nausea, insomnia, anxiety, dizziness. | I had the flu for 4 days, decided to try Tamiflu. I had with food. I had one on the strangest nights of my life. I do feel better, but definitely won't continue taking it. Just too much for me. | F | 29 | 1 days 75 mg | 3/5/2015 | 1 | tested positive for flu | Lost control of leg and arm muscles and also sense of smell and taste. | Not only did this make my flu worse but over 2 months later I still have no sense of smell or taste. Horrible experience. Would not recommend. | F | 79 | 5 days 1X day | 3/3/2015 | 1 | Diagnosed with the flu | Stomach pain, horrible diarrhea, disconnected feeling, headaches, minor memory loss, bad, vivid dreams | This was not worth the barely shortened flu symptoms. These were the worst drug side effects I've ever experienced and I work in the pharma industry. I think there needs to be additional clinical testing done on this drug. This was really bad. | F | 56 | 5 days 75 mg 2X day | 3/2/2015 | 3 | Influenza A | Took first dose without food, nausea and vomiting occurred. Subsequent doses with food and no nausea but mild stomach ache. Severe headache after each dose, headache was not one of the flu symptoms I'd been experiencing. High anxiety, continues despite finishing meds 2 days ago. Insomnia. | Did shorten severity and length of flu, flu symptoms started to subside within 36h. Fever broke at 48h. | F | 39 | 5 days 75 mg | 3/1/2015 | 5 | Flu | Diarrhea | Worked quick!! Was soooo much better by the next morning! | F | 29 | 1 days 75mg | 2/27/2015 | 1 | flu symptoms (100.7F) | Just came home from an expensive trip to the ER for terrible abdominal pain, which the ER doctor told me was a side effect of Tamiflu. Do you know that people call tamiflu - tummyflu? Anyway, the ER doctor said he would never take tamiflu and that the studies show that it really only cuts flu symptom length by 1 day so it's not even worth it. | Do not take tamiflu!! | F | 33 | 5 days 2X day | 2/24/2015 | 4 | influenza A | Diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, insomnia, hallucinations, bloating | I'm on day 3 of tamiflu and feel much better than day 1. However I have been hallucinating which is scary. I've tied that to my lack of sleep. I also haven't eaten solid foods. Still on my liquid diet and feel very tired. Migraine still persists. Tamiflu has made me feel better. But the side effects are also pretty extreme. Been near a toilet to prevent accidents. | F | 25 | 3 days 75mg | 2/23/2015 | 1 | influenza | Diarrhea and stomach pains every 5 to 10 minutes even after I stopped taking this government poison. I'd rather deal with fever. Did way more harm than good. | Be aware! | M | 36 | 3 days 75 | 2/23/2015 | 1 | flu | My child has been sleeping since 4 pm, it's 4 am right now. I have been monitoring her and just got of the nurse advise line. The side effects are horrible. She had a abnormal behavior. I will be on the phone with the doc on Monday for sure. | F | 4 | 2 days | 2/22/2015 | 2 | flu symptoms | M | 46 | 3 days | 2/21/2015 | 5 | Influenza b | This was a wonder drug. My son was so sick. Started with headache on Tuesday then to 104 temp by end of the day. Vomiting horrible sick. Took him to Dr. On Thursday started Tami flu. Now after 3 dose on Friday he is eating & smiling. No side effects. | M | 9 | 5 days 60 2X day | 2/20/2015 | 5 | tested positive for flu | None. | Miracle drug! 12yo daughter was walloped with the flu Thursday afternoon; 100% better by Saturday morning. Doc warned about side effects-studies say risk of nausea and hallucinations are real-but nothing happened. | F | 12 | 5 days 60 MG 2X day | 2/19/2015 | 1 | yes | Bad nauseousnes, diarrhea | I don't believe I will ever take this medicine again I think I will try other ways of overcoming flu than to have to endure the effects of this medication | F | 40 | 2 days 75mg | 2/19/2015 | 2 | Daugter 6 yo diag influenza A | Nausea and vomitting 1st day, bad dreams, stomach pain. | Fever went down on 2nd day but came back on day 3. Seems like getting over the flu without this drug would be better. It is also very expensive compared to OTC drugs. | F | 6 | 4 days 3 ml 2X day | 2/17/2015 |
