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  Dr. Perscribed for flu I am writing this on behalf of my boyfriend who took this drug and spent the day in and out of the bathroom. He was on the floor in front of the toilet feeling nautious and vomiting. I thought this drug was supposed to make you "feel better" not screw you up more. He would have been better off w/o it. M 39 1 days

 4  Influenza Type A No general side effects that i could differentiate b/n flu and drug; however there was a general feeling of malaise and myalgia-- common. I also noticed that when I took this I missed a monthly menstrual cycle. I wonder if there are possible interactions with birth control/contraceptive drugs? Overall, the drug helped me get back on my feet again two days faster than friends and family that weren't taking it. F 25 5 days

 3  flu nausea, diarrhea, general stomach uneasiness, insomnia It did keep the flu from going full blown, which was good. However, it is very hard on the stomach and G.I. tract. The insomnia is also a big problem when you need all the sleep possible to heal. F 48 10 days
