| 1 | type a flu | nausea, dehydration | took first dose with food and she threw up an hour or so later. tried giving her fever reducing meds an hour after that and she threw them up too. now we fear dehydration and high fever. can't reach doctor but will not continue tamiflu administration unless advised otherwise | F | 10 | 1 days | 10/12/2009 | 1 | H1N1 | Very depressed and shakey. Felt better before tamiflu, Have heart condition felt like heart pulling out of chest Not myself trying to get thoughts together | Big Farce | F | 52 | 4 days | 10/12/2009 | 2 | h1n1-my daughter is asthmatic | My daughter(who is 7) was throwing up 20 minutes after the first dose. She has thrown up several times after taking the medicine which really stinks because she was holding down liquids. We're now concerned that she may become dehydrated because she is throwing up once again and is refusing to eat or drink. She is also complaining about her legs being really sore. I read on this website that another little girl was complaining about soreness in her feet. My daughter started complaining about sore legs shortly after taking Tamiflu. This is our first day on the medication so I am going to contact her doctor and see if we should stop using it. | So far, it has made her symptoms worse. We'll see how she is feeling tomorrow. | F | 7 | 1 days | 10/11/2009 | 2 | prevent the H1N1 flu | Day 6 started itching on lower legs and behind knees - in a few days my forearms broke out in rash too | My daughter age 10, didn't have itching, only one day of vomiting/diarrhea and finished dose. I had to stop and am still having the rash after a week of stopping use. Am on steroids/xyzal to try to stop it! | F | 45 | 6 days | 10/11/2009 | 1 | Flu like systoms | I take lexapro and Xanax for anxiety and have been systom free for years. Everything was fine until to took this first does of medication. My aniexity has now been so bad similar to when I was first diagnosed. Not able to calm down, terrible thoughts and shaking. I didn't finsh the recommed does and and stuggling to get my life back. | If you suffer from any form of depression of anexity I WOULD NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION> | M | 37 | 2.5 days | 10/11/2009 | 4 | H1N1 | Day before starting Tamiflu I could barely get out of bed. By my second dose I was feeling so much better. Complete turn around. 2 days to go and I am feeling sadness, slight nausea after taking the pill, and food and drinks seem to taste funny at times. | F | 36 | 4 days | 10/10/2009 | 2 | diagnosed with swine flu | after 3 and a half hours of taking my first dose i vomited, then after my nxt meal i vomited again | 4 half hours after taking tamiflu | F | 23 | | 10/10/2009 | 4 | son diagnosed with H1N1 | My son, age 10, started taking tamiflu within 24 hours of being diagnosed with H1N1, had high fever one day and then started feeling much better. Still has a cough and nasal stuff, but what an improvment in his health. The rest of the family was put on it as means of prevention and we are all fine. We trust our doctor. | M | 10 | 5 days | 10/9/2009 | 4 | H1N! | Nausea | My son, who has Autism, has had three doses now. Started Tamiflu within 12 hours of H1N1 diagnoses. He is fever free, cough free and shows no signs of being sick. I am very happy with results since my younger son got H1N1 that turned into pneumonia. It was past the 48 hours for him to be able to take Tamiflu. Very happy my son with Autism won't go through what his brother did. | M | 10 | 3 times | 10/8/2009 | 4 | Possible H1N1 | I think it messed with my Menstration Cycle.. but other than that.. none. | I've taken it, I haven't had any problems that I can think of.. | F | 19 | 5 days | 10/8/2009 | 3 | H1N1-preventative | Nausea and Chills | I started taking Tamiflu because my live-in boyfriend was diagnosed with H1N1. He took it and was perfectly fine. I took it on an empty stomach and was nauseous and vomiting within an hour. That lasted about 3 hours or so and then I started feeling better. I decided to try again the next day but made sure to eat a hearty meal about 45 minutes before taking the pill. I felt perfectly fine and will comtinue taking it. I read that alot of people have dealt with the nausea so maybe try eating a full meal before hand and that might help. | F | 24 | 2 days | 10/8/2009 | 5 | Type A Flu - possibly H1N1 | hyper and very talkative -- this happens to him with a lot of medicines though. | My 6-yr old son was prescribed this after being diagnosed with Type A (suspected H1N1) flu. Within about 12 hours of taking this he was feeling much, much better. He took his first dose about 36 hours after the first sign of flu (high fever). His fever was down to 99.5 after less than 24 hours of starting Tamiflu. The only side-effect appears to be making him hyper. This happens to him on a lot of medicines like decongestants, etc. though so it isn't unique to Tamiflu. I would highly recommend this. It really cut his flu down to being not bad at all. He is symptom free from the flu 2 days after starting this with the exception of still having a low-grade fever. We are on day 2 of a 5 day Rx. | M | 6 | 2 days | 10/7/2009 | 4 | My 12 yr. old grandson tested posit | few side effects with the exception of its affects on taste buds | We caught this very, very early. No real symptoms other than a slight headache and waning of appetite...so took him to the Dr. Dr. was astute enough to run the test......thank goodness. All that is left now is a cough coming from a nasal/throat drip. | M | 12 | 5 days | 10/7/2009 | 3 | Influenza, possibly H1N1 | Nausea, Motion Sickness, Headache, Loss of Appetite, Shaking, Vomiting. | The first two days i felt perfectly fine, although my flu symptoms are presiding. I have to eat a very very large meal for the side effects to dull down. I was driving and suddenly felt motion sickness i'd never felt before and had to pull over, throw up, and then had a very horrible bloody nose. I wouldn't recommend this medication. | F | 16 | 4 days | 10/7/2009 | 2 | H1N1 | Depression, sadness, nausea | My 13 year old daughter took this medicine for 3 days and began to say she was sad, that this was the worst day of her life. She cried and nothing I could say or do helped. She sobbed when trying to make up the classwork she had missed. I went to this site when I knew something wasn't right. I stopped this medicine immediately. I wish I had come to this site before I let her take the first dose! The Tamiflu site briefly touches on this under side effects, but doesn't elaborate into the real dangers! Beware! | F | 13 | 3 days | 10/7/2009 | 2 | H1N1 presumed by Dr. | 3 yo daughter sick for 2 days. Older sibs with flu symptom earlier in the week. Dr. diagnosed H1N1 and prescribed Tamiflu Daughter without fever after 24 hrs, but not sleeping and complains of foot pain and itching. She constantly rubs her legs and feet together and complains of feet hurting. | My older kids didn't take meds and their fevers resolved after 3 days too so I don't think this medicine helped very much and the side effects are keeping me and my daughter awake. I'm not giving her anymore. | F | 3 | 2.5 days | 10/7/2009 | 1 | type A influenza | stomach cramp, nausea, diarrhea, blurry vision | My 13-year-old son was diagnosed with type A influenza 3 days ago, and started on Tamiflu right away. His fever shot up to 40degrees celcius the next day, and stayed there for nearly two days, inspite of the Tamiflu. All the while, he was complaining of severe stomach cramp and nausea, and pleaded to stop taking the medication, but the doctor told us to continue. It is day 3 today, the fever has gone down, but the diarrhea and nausea just kept getting worse, so we finally decided to discontinue Tamiflu. His classmates who were also contracted with the same virus at the same time, and who didn't take Tamiflu experienced high fever for just one day and then recovered quickly without any cramps or diarrhea. I wish I hadn't let my son take this medicine from the start.. My son has asthma, so I got wary. But it was a big mistake. | M | 13 | 2.5 days | 10/7/2009 | 1 | prescribed for flu symptoms | Nausea and vomiting began 35 minutes after first dose. Also, a sensitivity to light. | Before taking medication, I was already nauseated, but the only time I vomited was when I took the medication. | F | 16 | 1 days | 10/7/2009 | 4 | Possible H1N1 | None except bad taste which chocolate pudding took care of. | From other posts please remember that this DOES NOT help if you have had symptoms more than 48 hours. My son took it at hour 36 and his severe headache and fever were gone within 12 hours. I don't know if it was because of Tamiflu but I would recommend it. I am also happy to know that it will help him the rest of the flu season. | M | 6 | 1 days | 10/6/2009 | 1 | Nausea anxiety | I took the full course of Tamiflu, now several weeks on I am still not my self having very low moods this is very unusual for me. I cry alot and worry over the smallest things. I become fixated on irrational thoughts and feel I am going insane. How long will this last? | F | 27 | 5 days | 10/6/2009 |
