You should tell your doctor that your child is asthmatic. Tamiflu should be used with caution in those with lung disease eg. asthma. You and your doctor will need to discuss the risks and benefits of taking Tamiflu. (Tamiflu safety and effectiveness has not been determined in patients with lung disease)
