Another 800 people had the flu and other 25 passed away in San Diego County last week. So far this season, there have been 15,135 cases of the flu virus.

One of the most commonly prescribed medications for the flu is Tamiflu. But there are a few cases of severe side effects. Tamiflu is an anti-viral medication and is most effective within 48 hours when you have flu symptoms. Tamiflu decreases the rate the virus spreads in your body.

Side effects for Tamiflu are very rare. Hallucinations, seizures, nightmares, suicidal thoughts, and problematic behavior can happen. It's important parents are aware of these when their child is taking this medication.

Deaths for the flu are higher for infants and the elderly. The CDC still recommends taking Tamiflu because the benefits still outweigh the risks.

If you are unsure, be sure to call your healthcare provider for advice about the Tamiflu.

If you have anything else you would like addressed, don't hesitate to contact Dr. Fabi at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology in San Diego.
