Hello
Fever with chills and orange color urine ( later on red color ) is not due to tamiflu i.e. oseltamivir ,as this is a anti viral drug.
Red color of urine ( orange ) may be due to .
1 Renal stone or calculus in the urinary system . Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of kidney ( urinary tract system).
2 Due to urine infection so get in urine culture as this is a most common cause of fever with chills and red color urine.
3 May be acute renal failure , get in blood examination for C B C , serum creatinine and blood urea .
In my opinion you should consult an Urologist and get his opinion.
Good luck.
