Tamiflu

Tamiflu (Oseltamivir Phosphate) is a medicine to treat flu (infection caused by influenza virus). It belongs to a group of medicines called Neuraminidase Inhibitors. These medications attack the influenza virus and prevent it from spreading inside your body. Tamiflu treats flu at its source by attacking the virus that causes the flu, rather than simply masking symptoms.

Uses

Antibiotics are medicines that kill bacteria and are, therefore, not effective against viral infections. Because flu is a viral infection, it should be treated with an antiviral medication, such as Tamiflu. Tamiflu is used for the treatment of infection by the influenza virus. It is indicated in patients 1 year and older who have had symptoms for no more than 2 days. Tamiflu is a Neuraminidase Inhibitors and treats the cause of influenza infection by inhibiting the critical neuraminidase protein on the surface of the virus.

How to take this medication

Tamiflu should be taken twice daily (once in the morning and once in the evening) for five days. Tamiflu can be taken with or without food. As with many medicines, if taken with a light snack, milk, or a meal, the potential for stomach upset may be reduced. You should complete the entire treatment of ten capsules, even if you are feeling better. Never share Tamiflu with anyone, even if they have the same symptoms. It is important that you begin your treatment with Tamiflu as soon as possible from the first appearance of your flu symptoms.
