Tamiflu
Uses
Tamiflu (oseltamivir phosphate) is a medication used to treat some types
of influenza and illness caused by the flu viruses (influenza). Oseltamivir
is also used to prevent the flu for those who are exposed, such as the
family members of the patient, thus helping to reduce the chance of getting
the flu when there is a flu outbreak in the community.
How to take this medication
Take Tamiflu orally as directed by your doctor. You may take Tamiflu with
food or milk to minimize stomach upset. Take Tamiflu as soon as flu symptoms
appear or as soon as possible after you have been exposed, possibly within
48 hours. If you came down with the flu, take Tamiflu twice a day for
5 days: once in the morning and once in the evening, completing the entire
10 doses. To prevent the flu, take Tamiflu once a day for at least 7 days
or take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Tamiflu works best if
it is kept at a constant level in your body. Therefore, try to take Tamiflu
at a fixed time each day. Stopping Tamiflu too early may result in a relapse
of the infection. Inform your doctor if your condition worsens or if new
symptoms appear.
Side Effects
If nausea occurs, persists, or worsens, tell your doctor as soon as possible.
Notify your doctor immediately if you have any of these rare but serious
side effects: dizziness, vomiting, persistent cough, persistent weakness,
fever, or sore throat.
Precautions
Tamiflu has not been shown to treat flu-like illnesses caused by any virus
other than influenza A and B. Thus, it will not treat stomach flu, common
cold, or other respiratory illnesses, which are not caused by influenza
viruses. There are many types of viruses that cause symptoms that are
not easy to distinguish from flu. Contact your health care provider if
you feel worse or develop new symptoms during or after treatment, or if
your influenza symptoms do not improve after taking Tamiflu.
