To @Aneta: Lack of appetite and sore throat are typical symptoms of the flu. Canker sores, on the other hand, can have many causes. If anything worries you, consult your paediatrician as soon as possible.
Are total lack of appetite, canker sores and a sore throat also symptoms of the flu? Child on tamiflu 5 days

Vomiting is the most common adverse event reported during oseltamivir (Tamiflu) therapy in children aged 6-12 years. The most common adverse event was vomiting. In general, these symptoms occurred at the beginning of treatment and resolved with continued administration. Nevertheless, any side effect should be reported to the doctor. We suggest how and why this should be done in the text: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane However, no skin reactions were reported during treatment with oseltamivir. The causes of skin lesions can be different, ranging from an allergic reaction to any of the drugs administered, ending with the reaction of the immune system to the infection. If they occur, seek medical advice. In case of problems with making an appointment with a doctor, you can consult a pediatrician on-line: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja/z-pediatra
