A member asked:

Got the flu and on tamiflu (oseltamivir). fever 2 degrees above norm. how long will fever typically last? i did have my flu shot. tx

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Shortens duration: A flu shot may not have been the one for the strain of virus you have. Taking tamiflu (oseltamivir) before can ward of the flu, and if taken right away usually it shortens the duration of symptoms. Feel better!
