Tamiful

[PBC2]

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had used Tamiflu with liver disease? The side effects sound pretty harsh on the liver. My doctor gave me 75 mgs. to be taken twice a day for 5 days. I have stage 2 and 3 scarring. I don't want to speed up the damage by taking a liver killing drug.

Thank you.

Hepatotoxicity

Despite widespread use, there is little evidence that oseltamivir when given orally causes liver injury, either in the form of serum enzyme elevations or clinically apparent liver disease. A proportion of patients with acute influenza A may have minor serum enzyme elevations during the acute illness, but these appear to be independent of therapy and are not exacerbated by osteltamivir.
