Oseltamivir phosphate (generic Tamiflu) has been recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) for the treatment of avian influenza and swine flu in case of a pandemic. WHO has also recommended all the countries at risk to stockpile this medicine so that they have enough supplies for patients in the event of an epidemic. This has led to incessant demand of Oseltamivir tablets and most people buy this drug online for themselves and their family members. However, with the branded Tamiflu running in short supply and coming at a higher price, generic medicines with Oseltamivir phosphate are quickly making inroads into the market and are becoming available at most pharmacies.
