1 | I had the flu | I believe this has given me the symptoms of GERDS. My esophagus has a burning sensation, my throat feel dry, and I have a fairly non-productive cough that continues. Also, I have small outbreaks of burning, itching sores on the front of my body and one now on my upper leg. These started after 3 or 4 days. | I would NEVER take this again and do NOT recommend it. | F | 58 | 5 days 2X day | 1/10/2013 | 3 | Flu | Insomnia, heart palpitations, headache and vomiting. I have to say that the medicine is helping with my term of the flu, but the flu symptoms combined with the tamiflu side effects have been crazy! I've been taking it for 3 days. It's midnight, I'm so tired but can't sleep. My heart is racing! I'm not going to take another dose and feel I can ride out the rest of thus flu with liquids & rest. | F | 46 | 6 days 75 | 1/7/2013 | 3 | Diagnosed with the flu | I've taken only two doses and could not sleep....fortunately the flu symptoms are far less however I think it was mainly from the steroid shot the PA gave. The side effects affect certain people in different ways...they are real people. Stay away from this chemical until its improved,, I am discontinuing immediately and will keep drinking fluids and getting a lot of rest when I am able to. I believe I will be okay after that. | M | 34 | 10 times 75 | 1/6/2013 | 4 | diagnosed influenza | slight headache | I have never had such a benign course of illness. | M | 60 | 5 days ? 2X day | 1/5/2013 | 2 | I was diagnsed with the flu | I was not able to sleep at night due to irritabilitiness. | F | 46 | 4 days 75 mg | 1/5/2013 | 4 | Flu | This is next time this year with the flu, and my next time taking the Tamiflu.

Fever, chills, headache, body aches, coughing, sneezing, stuffy nose. I went to the doctor the next morning and got swabbed and confirmed I had the flu. I started Tamiflu right then. I slept for about two days. But I was slowly feeling better. I'm not sure if the side effects I listed are indeed side effects or just simply the flu. Either way, I finished my 5 days of Tamiflu tonight. I am hopeful that I will feel like "me" again tomorrow! BTW, I did get my flu shot in November. | F | 50 | 5 days 2X day | 12/25/2012 | 2 | Flu | Omg please do not take this medicine unless u r one of those ppl who enjoy to vomit. I couldn't tell if it helped me or not bc I felt so nauseated and vomited several times after taking it. My first dose made my flu symptoms a little better at first but immediately after I was puking. And I almost had to pay a fortune to get it in the first place! Thank god I didn't pay for it. My ob actually had some samples so I ran over there and got some rather than wait at my regular MD. I'd rather not pay to puke. And it keeps me up if I lay down I fell like I'm going to throw up more than if I'm sitting up or doing something. Why on earth would they make a pill for the flu that only makes it worse?! Can anyone say near future recall | F | 24 | 2 days Not sure | 12/22/2012 | 1 | Flu | jittery, dizzy, insomnia, thirst, out of it feeling ( and not from the flu) | Did not experience side effects with first 2 pills, but I was pretty sick so probably didn't notice. Was feeling better today, took third pill and within 30 minutes felt the weird side effects. based on my reaction, and the reactions of so many others, this drug is obviously falsely labeled. This is my last dose. I don't trust it enough to continue. | F | 44 | 2 days 75 2X day | 12/21/2012 | 5 | Confirmed Flu | A little nausea/dizziness, mostly within an hour or so after taking Tamiflu. On the upside, before starting the medicine, I felt like death. 103 fever, was shivering in an 80 degree room, intense headache that wouldn't go away, weakness, etc. Less than 24 hours after starting Tamiflu, I felt like a new man. Side Effects have been worth it for me. | M | 30 | 3 days | 12/19/2012 | 1 | have the flu | 13 year old daughter was prescribed tamiflu due to having the flu.Within one hour of first dose she became violently ill.Called doctor who hasnt called back in 5 hours..I will not give her another dose..would rather have her deal with the flu an extra day! | F | 13 | 1 times 75 mg 2X day | 12/11/2012 |
