[quote=Anonymous]Our insurance covers Tamiflu at almost 100%. The Urgent Care doctor gave me five prescriptions when my son tested positive a couple of years ago. I called our pediatrician before filling the scripts who flat out told me he advises against it in otherwise healthy children and would never give it to his children. Too many possible scary side effects. I did some reading and research and threw away the prescriptions. At best it can shorter the duration of the flu fby a couple of days. It [i]might[/i] make the symptoms less severe. I can cause all kinds of really bad neurological side affects. Just not worth the risk to me. My son recovered. Our other kids did get the flu. They recovered as well. I did not get sick despite being the primary care giver. My DH didn't get sick either. [/quote]
