What are the most common side effects of the anti-viral medications?
The most common side effects of anti-viral medications are similar to flu-like symptoms. For example: • Tamiflu can cause nausea and vomiting, which can be minimized by taking the medication with food. • Relenza can cause dizziness, sinusitis, runny or stuffy nose, cough, diarrhea, nausea, or headaches. People with lung disease can also develop wheezing and trouble breathing after taking Relenza; therefore, people with a history of asthma or another lung disease should not take this medication.
