“…the complete evidence from the CSRs paints a much less positive picture of oseltamivir than was presented to regulators, policy makers, clinicians, and the public. Important benefits have been overestimated and harms under-reported. In particular, the review found no compelling evidence to support claims that oseltamivir reduces the risk of complications of influenza, such as pneumonia and hospital admission, claims that were used to justify international stockpiling of the drug.”
