Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 13 year old granddaughter took Tamiflu last week for her third bout with the flu. Since finishing the medications she has been experiencing almost daily dizziness and says her heart and lungs hurt. Could this been a lingering side effect of the meds or flu strain?
The symptoms your daughter is experiencing is likely due to lingering flu rather than the effect of Tamiflu. Make sure that she stays well hydrated. Take adequate rest. She can also take Tylenol for the body ache.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal
