I am going travelling in thailand for about 3 months and have been told about this bird flu, what is it? it must have a more technical name than asian bird flu... Also someone suggested that i take a supply of tami flu or tamiflu just in case. Please some advice, what is this bird flu and is it really a killer - and will this tamiflu really make all the difference.. cheers u28

Bird flu is a killer - i am sure you have heard about it on the news...Tamiflu is made by Roche and is a medicine used to treat influenza. It is supposed to ease the symptoms of 'flu - and this might assist those who are affected after having been exposed to the virus...

Hi all I am from India and here Tamiflu is known as Asian Bird flu. Really this is very dangerous disorder now a day but now in Asia this causes a lot of casualties. There are various pharmaceuticals companies are working in this field for preventing the flu infection. [no links please - administrator]Tamiflu's side effects are few as compare to other medications. So I think this is the best option for us.

In response to all the recent news we would like to advise you that UKMedix have set up a useful tool to help you determine whether your Tamiflu is the genuine Roche medication or not; Either way, we would also recommend that you contact Roche themselves who will authenticate your medication using the unique batch numbers that are given on the packaging of your Tamiflu. For further details please see the link below: http://www.ukmedix.com/tamiflu/roche-tamiflu.cfm and please do not hesitate to contact UKMedix should you have any enquiries.
