What is Tamiflu?

I haven’t had “the flu” in quite a few years (or even a cold in the past 5 years, used to get a cold and or flu every year or twice a year).

I’d let my body fight it for 3 days and if still not getting better (or even getting notably worse) I’d get a prescription for antibotics from my doctor. His office recommended theraflu (over the counter) one year and it did give me my first relief (and first night’s sleep in 3 days) but after that first day of use it did nothing for me and I was prescribed the antibiotics.

Antibiotics seem to knock me down too (nauseous feeling) and yes I take the full prescription (don’t just stop because ‘I feel better’).

Flu is a virus-—why would the MD give you antibiotics?
