Oseltamivir Description
What is oseltamivir?
Oseltamivir is an antiviral medicine used to treat influenza A and B. In Australia it is prescribed and available from online pharmacies with a valid doctor’s prescription. It should be started within 48 hours of symptoms for best effect. It is not a vaccine replacement.
How oseltamivir works
It belongs to neuraminidase inhibitors. By blocking an enzyme the flu virus uses to spread inside the body, oseltamivir can shorten symptoms such as fever, fatigue and cough. Some people notice fewer days of being unwell. It does not kill the virus by itself but slows its progress.
Who can take it
Adults and teenagers 12 years and older typically receive 75 mg twice daily for five days. Younger children are dosed by weight under a chart provided by the prescriber. People with kidney problems may need adjustments. Always follow the pharmacist’s dosing guide and doctor’s advice.
Benefits seen in Australia
Many Australian patients report faster relief when treatment begins early, especially after a household flu exposure. It can reduce fever duration and help with breathing and energy. The medicine is usually well tolerated, with most side effects being mild and temporary.
Common side effects
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain and headache. Some people feel tired or dizzy. Taking the tablet with food can lessen stomach upset. Serious reactions are rare but seek urgent care if you notice severe rash, swelling, confusion or trouble breathing.
Precautions in pregnancy and breastfeeding
Tell your clinician if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. The benefits and risks should be weighed. Oseltamivir is sometimes used in pregnancy when clearly needed. Do not use in children without a prescription. Avoid skipping doses and complete the full five days unless advised.
