Hallucinations After Taking Tamiflu: How Much Is Real Versus Not Real?


Well, the Allen, Texas, case is certainly not the first report of hallucinations after taking Tamiflu. Also, a case report appeared in Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience describing a 22-year-old male who suffered "mood swings, suicidal feelings, auditory hallucinations, memory deterioration, and insomnia after taking oseltamivir." Those boys survived, but Japanese news reports have told of two teenagers taking Tamiflu whose death may be attributable to suicide. So, how real are the risks of taking Tamiflu? Looks like more independent scientific studies may be necessary before making more definitive conclusions about the safety of Tamiflu.
