FDA urges new warning on Tamiflu

It appears that a much stronger consumer warning label will come to the Tamiflu flu vaccine drug. The FDA said this week that the most widely used flu drug in the world needs some beefing up as it applies to warning consumers about possible side effects.

In certain instances, psychiatric problems have been witnessed in some Tamiflu patients. The label on Roche's Tamiflu product already alludes to delirium and self-injury. Apparently, if you take Tamiflu, you might drive yourself off a cliff.

What is it with these bizarre side effects that seem to be a component of every pharmaceutical drug? As always, the best way to stay flu-free is to eat and exercise right and get your immune system in perfect working order. Another biggie -- wash your hands several times a day.
