“A company official on Tuesday said Tamiflu is safe for children, even though the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is looking into reports that the medication, and others like it, may cause neurological problems in youths. ‘We’ve done an extensive review on all of the available data,’ David Reddy, global team leader for Roche’s Tamiflu, told FOXNews.com. ‘We’ve conducted tests and experiments and are conducting new experiments and no causal relationship between Tamiflu and these (neurological) events has been established.’ The FDA last week said it’s considering new precautions for Tamiflu’s product label, which last year began carrying a neuropsychiatric warning.” (11/27/07)
