Each patient would need to get advice from their attending physicians to know if they can take Tamiflu. It is likely okay, but different medications and treatments could influence a determination of if and when to use anti-viral medicines when you have a serious underlying disease like Lupus.

Lupus patients should always discuss over the counter medications, herbs, and supplements with their rheumatologists because of the danger of worsening lupus activity or negative interactions with medication.

Not necessarily, but many lupus patients will gain weight due to an anti-inflammatory drug that they often take called Prednisone. This causes excessive weight gain.
