I had been running a low grade temperature and a cough. I was prescribed Tamaflu. After the 2nd does my fever has broke. I still have a cough but am feeling better. I just wasn't feeling better without it. The ibuprofen wasn't working. I have had no adverse side effects so far.

I took this as soon as I started feeling sick and running a fever. I was still miserable for 2 days, but by day 3, fever had subsided and started feeling MUCH better. It's day 5 now and I can't even tell I was even sick. Great medicine, but I am also fortunate I caught my flu early on.

Upon the recommendation of our pediatrician, I gave this to my 4-year old daughter who tested positive for the flu. She wasn't drinking nor eating much, and I was concerned about dehydration. I was able to get her to eat and drink a small amount at about 1:30pm. We started the first dose of Tamiflu a few hours later at 4:30pm.

I was able to get her to eat and drink a small amount at about 1:30pm. We started the first dose of Tamiflu a few hours later at 4:30pm. Within 2 hours of taking the first dose (around 6:15) she vomited everything she had for lunch and the medicine, too. I had her drink just a few more sips of water thereafter, and she vomited it right back up. We immediately stopped giving her the medication as per the recommendation online if there are any adverse reactions. However, she only could drink a very small amount of water through the night. She woke up feeling better in the morning in any case, so it's a good thing we didn't have to give this to her for another 5 days. This medication is extremely expensive ($211, although only $50 copay with our insurance), and I would request a refund if I could. (Are the pediatricians trained to say we should all take this? It's horrible and could CAUSE death from the flu!) If you are at all concerned about dehydration, I do NOT recommend this medication since it makes things WORSE not better.

Started Tamiflu about 14 hours after onset of severe flu symptoms. Had a rough subsequent 12 hours but started to improve.
