Flu frenzy: Caused by the drug or the bug?

Posted Oct 22 2008 9:30pm

The Food and Drug Administration is reviewing cases and news reports of bizarre behavior in Images_1 primarily children overseas who were taking the antiviral medication, Tamiflu, while they were infected with the influenza virus (better known as "The Flu"). It is unclear whether the cases of delirium, hallucinations, and other bizarre behaviors are due to the medication or the flu.

The pediatric advisory committee for the FDA will meet later this week to discuss official recommendations based on these cases.

We'll keep you posted. Stay tuned!
