Hello Everybody,
I just have visited a site http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s33713-s-RELENZA.aspx to find the answer of ‘Is Relenza safe for a person with influenza?’ My daughter is supposed to take Relenza for a week and is disturbed with this a lot. I've heard that there can be complications from getting this. Please help me to know more on the topic. Thank You Nicks |

There are also possible complications from the flu. A friend self treated and something went way wrong. The stroke took him to the emergency room where we were told in less than 24 hours, etc. However, he survived and is nearly normal, not too bright (sad given his youth and math major) and works in a relative's business. Unless you knew it you would think the speach is a foreign accent. What did your doctor say since as my boy puts it, I am not that kind of doctor..

Relenza is not a Over-The-Counter medication (no-prescription medication), so you better take your physician's advice before using it.
Some info on Relenza: Used in treatment of uncomplicated acute illness due to influenza virus in adults and adolescents 12 years of age or older. Treatment should only be initiated in patients who have been symptomatic for no more than 2 days. (Source Quick Look Drug Reference: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins) Anyways, its always good to avoid self-treatment. keep smiling.
