Comment:
I am on day 2 of taking Tamiflu and already notice a big change. I have no upset stomache but I have been eating before I take it. My body isn't as achy and my fever broke within hours of taking. Clearing up my chest, it dosen't feel like it is on fire whenever I cough.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS MEDICATION. We were given a prescription for our 9 year old daughter who had the flu. Within minutes of taking tamiflu, she would throw up. We quit after 4 attempts. This medication is a royal rip off. Doctors should be scolded for encouraging patients to take this junk medication.

My six-year-old was prescribed this medication. She never got sick from it, but it gave her mood swings and she had trouble sleeping. We finished all 5 days of the prescription, but she still missed 4 days of school. Not sure the exorbitant price of the drug is worth it.

Comment:
After ever dosage I felt very sick to my stomach. Although I tried to eat food with the medication that did not help. My son is eight, he vomited every time he took the medication. I do not think the side effects are worth the treatment.
