After a person is started on Tamiflu, is it still recommended that they stay home for seven days from the start of symptoms?
Regardless of the use of antiviral medication, people with influenza symptoms need to stay home until the symptoms of fever and cough are gone. This might be shorter for a person taking antiviral medication, but it is not based on the medication, it based on whether or not the symptoms are still present.
