Has anyone with Crohn’s who is on steroid treatment been treated for swine flu with tamiflu while on Budesonide?
I have Swine Flu my partner has gone to fetch my anti-viral drugs however i’m waiting for my doctor to call me back for further assessments and they have told me not to take the drugs until the doc has rang me back?
anyone with any advice please?
You can take steroid medication with Tamiflu, that’s fine.
Rather than waiting for GP or NHS to pull their finger out, contact your local pharmacist and will confirm there is no drug interaction and then you can start the antivirals.
Of course there is the risk that Tamiflu can worsen symptoms of chrons if you have an upset stomach etc.
