Tamiflu for the cold


Does the drug Tamiflu work for the common cold?

No, the latest evidence indicates that it is a complete waste of money. Yet doctors continue to prescribe it. In recent trials, patients who received Tamiflu did not get better faster or have a reduction in their symptoms. The only benefit was in their HEAD. Doctors prescribe it because they are offered free dinners (and much more) from the drug reps.

If you have the common cold; rest, drink fluids and take the occasional tylenol for your body aches. Everything else out on the market is a scam. Tamiflu is a very expensive drug and most people fail to benefit from it. Remember-medicine is a business.
