yes
My husband has a confirmed case of H1N1 and was given Tamiflu to help. It has made a marked difference in how he is feeling (he has been on the meds a little more than 24 hours). But, we were told he is still contagious up to 7 seven days after the onset of symptoms, or until his symptoms compleatly disappear, whichever is later. However, a different doctors office told us he was NOT contagious after 24 hours on the drug. I called a nurse line provided by our insurance, and the nurse I talked to confirmed that a person is still contagious on Tamiflu. Point being that some doctors are still sorting through this new out break and it's important to ask lots of questions and get a second (or third) opinion if you need one.
You are still contagious for 24 hours after the last time you had a fever WITHOUT the use of fever reducing medications.
YES!
Read the recommended dose. It may vary from person to person. But dosing yourself with 10 of any tablet at once will do no good, but harm.
per the pharmacist, there is no need to refrigerate Tamiflu.
yes
This is not a contagious disease.The virus is contagious.
Yes you are still contagious.
till symptom are showing it is contagious
A person infected with the flu virus can be contagious starting about one day before symptoms appear and typically remains contagious for about five to seven days after becoming sick. Taking Tamiflu (oseltamivir) can help reduce the duration of flu symptoms and potentially lower the contagious period, but individuals should still consider themselves contagious for the same time frame. It's important to practice good hygiene, such as handwashing and covering coughs, to prevent spreading the virus to others during this time.
If you've been prescribed antibiotics I'm assuming that you tested positive for a bacterial infection. Sometimes you doc will prescribe them anyway (bad idea). Strep can cause tonsillitis and we all know that you wont be contagious after 24 hours of being on antibiotics. If your tonsillitis was caused by a viral infection the antibiotics wont do anything for you except lower your immunity, and you'll still be contagious.
normally it would last 48 hours until its fully gone but if you still have the stomarch bug you should proceed to the doctor!
