What Causes Rashes On The Legs After Taking Tamiflu?
I have had the flu for over a week and taken the Tamiflu. I now have a strange rash on my legs. It looks like someone drew little red dots on my feet ankles and calves. My spouse, got sick with flu 2 days before me and has the same symptoms but did not take Tamiflu. Any ideas?
The rashes if appeared only after medicine intake, can be considered side effect of drug ; if before drug intake already existing , then have to be part of systemic viral infection.
Hope I have answered your query.
