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  Flu symptoms As of today I finished my first full day of tamiflu. I can tell you I thought I was starting to turn the corner, mind you today is day 5 of full blown symptoms. The stomach cramps and nausea is horrible, sleep is severely disrupted due to intrusive dreams, horrible night sweats, and I've also had a couple instances of senseless babble according to my wife. I followed up with my doctor and they recommended I stop the tamiflu! Never again tamiflu will you step foot in this house! Horrible experience. I would not recommend tamiflu to anyone. Let alone the price of this horrible medication! M 32 1 days

 1  Flu Severe headache (my head was pounding, had so much pressure), nauseousness, lack of appetite, diarrhea, insomnia was the worst, wide awake in middle of night, hallucinating. My fever has gone down after 1st dose but kept going back up after taking each subsequent dose to 40. I was so agitated after taking this, I couldn't even stand getting near my family. Would not recommend this drug! I am stopping after day 2. F 34 2 days

 2  Flu B On the 3rd day the bottoms of my feet and toes started burning terribly and I suspect it is this med so I stopped it after 3 days (6 pills) I also still have so much yellow nasal discharge its weird because I salt rinse my sinuses 4 x's a day when I am sick. Still tired also and have been emotional, which is very unusual for me. My pharmacist told me not to waste the money on it. I should have listened to him like I did last time. But I had flu A 8 weeks ago, and didn't take it, and now have flu B, so thought I would try it and I got better faster with flu A , which is suppose to be the worse flu, than this one and I took the tamiflu.

 1  influenza Terrible nausea and vomiting. The nausea was so bad that I couldn't do anything other than miserably sit still trying not to vomit. Be aware that the side effects of this medication can be severe, even those, such as nausea, that are spoken of as mild to moderate. Eating something prior to taking the pill did nothing but give me more to throw up. F 64 1 days

 2  Flu Taste. That's basically the only thing. And it's not just taste. Anything with vinegar. Vinegar has a nasty taste and I can't even smell it. Or anything that has vinegar in it. Katsup and mustard alike. Cause it's made with vinegar. This sux cause I'm Italian and love my salads. And now. Half my foods are ruined cause one way or another it uses vinegar. (Hot peppers, pickles, etc...) M 32 5 days
