[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of your child is otherwise healthy, the side effects of Tamiflu can sometimes be worse than the flu itself. My pediatrician practice doesn’t recommend it for healthy kids. [/quote] Same, unless there is an infant in the home.[/quote] +1. My spouse is a pediatrician, and we've never given Tamiflu--spouse has never suggested it. Perhaps I'm ignorant, but I don't even really know what Tamiflu is. [/quote] It is an anti-viral. It prohibits the virus from replicating. That is why you have to take it within 48 hours. Otherwise the video load gets too high and the virus has already replicated too much to be effective. [/quote] Whoa. PP and yes I guess I didn’t realize this existed. Yay modern medicine! :)[/quote]
