Tamiflu linked to "bizarre" reactions
Dear Friend,
It's yet another case of the cure being worse than the disease.
In the UK, more than half of the kids who have taken Tamiflu -- the antibiotic weapon of choice to combat the H1N1 virus -- have experienced side effects.
Although most of these side effects have been minor (such as stomach cramps and nausea), as many as one in five of these kid have had disturbing, "neuropsychiatric" reactions to the drug.
Reports say that kids have had an inability to think clearly, have suffered from nightmares, and have behaved "strangely."
Unfortunately, these reactions are nothing new. The dangers of Tamiflu are well-documented. It's even been linked to the deaths of some children and teenagers.
It's really no wonder. The drug is not just an antibiotic, like so many assume it is -- it's a neuraminidase inhibitor that blocks viral enzymes that can assist the flu virus in infecting the respiratory tract.
In the U.S., the FDA has acknowledged that there have been as many as 1,800 reports of kids experiencing abnormal behavior when they're given Tamiful. In Japan, they've actually banned the use of Tamiflu by kids.
But because the UK is in such a cold panic over swine flu, they're handing out Tamiflu like candy. Believe it or not, there's even a telephone hotline and website where people can order a prescription without having to consult a doctor.
So far, as many as 150,000 people have been prescribed the drug in this manner.
No wonder so many kids are having so many side effects. At the first sign of a runny nose or a headache, their parents are pumping them full of Tamiflu, thanks to Dr. Web.
All of these risks in order to reduce the flu symptoms by less than two days. That's right: according to the makers of Tamiflu, clinical tests have shown that the drug only has the ability to reduce the duration of symptoms by about 36 hours.
It just doesn't add up.
