My husband just got confirmed for the flu. He has been home for 3 days and finally he went to th dr?

Question:
they gave me a prescription for tamiflu too because they said i will for sure get it. my question is if i only feel tired and a little bit of body ache but nothing bad should i start it or wait until i have more pronounced symptoms? how does tamiflu make you feel and do we need to eat before we take it
Answer:
Since you can use tamiflu to prevent a flu altogether, it's definitely safe to take when you have the first symptoms. The earlier you start, the faster you'll get better and the less sick you'll get.
