Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Tamiflu has a lot of side effects, especially nausea and vomiting, so you have to be very careful in terms of taking it, if you have already started it i would finish the course, but be cautious since he did fall, the fall could have been just secondary to the flu as well, causing generalized weakness, not necessarily side effect.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
