What Causes Fatigue And Body Ache While On Oseltamivir?
I started taking oseltamivir Wednesday evening as a preventive measure since my wife was diagnosede with A and B influenza. My dosage is one 75 Mg cap a day for 10 days. Yesterday afternoon and today I have been miserable with fatigue with aches and pains in my upper body and shoulders. I am 75 years of age and have had heart by-bass surgery in 2003, a AAA Endograft in 2009, a valve replacement in 2014 and a pacemaker/defibrillator on March 1st.

Hello,
Alll these symptoms are not from drugs but because of viral infection as you are suffering from influenza.
There is nothing to worry as soon as infection ends you will return to normal in one to two weeks. For speedy recovery i suggest. Take plenty of liquids,fruits,fruit drinks and soup.
Take soft diet. Diet alone will help to recover so dont worry you will feel healthy soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
