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  Ingluenza B flu Nausea, headaches, vomitting I took 9 out 10 pills recommended to treat the flu. In day 4 and 5 I ve experienced hours of anxiety. But the surprise comes after like 2 weeks when I started to have very strong panic attacks, pain in my heart and in body, depression, high anxiety, with no other reason to feel like this. Thing that used to make me happy, like doing my job, go to the gym, have my friend around now seem a non sense to me. Hope it will pass with therapy F 33 5 days

 3  Influenza A Night sweats vomiting, also makes my body feel really weird and tingly and almost like my heart is racing I’m going to stop taking it. It has helped a lot and I’m not sick anymore but can’t stand the way it makes me feels it’s scary and I don’t like it. Des help get rid of the flu but once you start feeling normal again you feel the side effects and they’re weird. My doctor gave me the option of taking them in the first place so I will be stopping them on day 4. F 28 5 days

 3  Flu Severe nausea and vomiting that started less than 20 mins after the pill and continued for a full day, couldn’t even hold in water, ended up hydrating with an I.v. line. Dizziness, stupor (not hallucinating but inability to focus or respond to stimulation); terrible night sweats (but I think the flu is responsible for that); bitter taste in the mouth and in the vomit, stomach pain; muscular pain from severe dehydration I had a severe case of flu, after the first symptom it took less than 6 hrs for high fever, coughing and muscular pain to appear. I feel, it helped with the flu symptoms that’s why I kept taking it after the first pill, but I quit after the 3 rd dose and 2 days of vomiting... F 32 2 days

 1  Flu My child had hallucinations. Would stare into space & not be able to answer us for a few minutes. Wouldn't recommend this drug. This happened on more than one occasion. She took it when she was 6 and 8, but wasn't able to communicate that she was having hallucinations. But a few years later she could tell us the awful hallucinations and nauseous effects of tamiflu.

 5  Flu type A I took tamiflu within first 24 hours of a confirmed case of flu type A. I was amazed, the drug basically just stopped the flu dead in its tracks. I think it has given me a bit of insomnia, but I’ll take that over the flu. I didn’t finish full 5 days of meds because the pharmacist said it wasn’t necessary if I was doing well. HOWEVER I tried to give this to my 16 month old in liquid form given to me by her pediatrician and she vomited everytime within seconds. It really upset me. All this food she had eaten came up and I felt like a shit mom even though I was just trying to help her. So while I personally tolerated the medicine well my toddler did not. So it’s not for everyone. I say give it a try, but stop taking it a day after you feel better, it’s not like antibiotics you will not create resistance. See side effects F 37 3 days

 3  Precaution/prevention Some nausea, only lasting a minute or so 2-3 times a day for the last 2 days. A LOT OF Light headedness and dizziness. Lasting for several minutes 5-8 times a day for 2 days My sister has 'type a flu' so the doc put me and mom on Tamiflu as a precaution. Sister has had no neg side effects, however, my mother and I have felt nauseous a few times and we both have had several episodes of dizziness/light headedness. I've read in a few places that dizziness is a lesser known side effect. So.. we're a little concerned and not taking it anymore. We're on day 5 of 10. F 38 5 days
