Is it worth giving oseltamivir (Tamiflu, Ebilfumin, Tamivil) to the elderly in case of contact with a flu patient?

If I have had the flu with my child since Saturday and we have been given Tamiflu by my doctor, should I ask my doctor for the same medicine for parents 74 years old to prevent them from developing symptoms? If my mother is taking depakine, anafranil, zolaferren and hydroxyzine, can she take the above flu medicine?

The decision to prophylactic administration of Tamiflu to persons in close contact with a confirmed influenza virus infection should be based on a case-by-case basis, taking into account, m.in exposure, age, general health status and risk of serious complications. In the case of elderly people, people with chronic diseases, living in or having close contact with sick people, the use of the drug may be justified. No interactions have been shown between the active substances contained in Tamiflu, Depakine, Anafranil, Zolafren and hydroxyzine that could adversely affect the efficacy and safety. Therefore, I encourage you to consult with your doctor about the possibility of using prophylactic therapy with oseltamivir (eg Tamiflu).

The results of studies conducted on tamiflu confirm the lack of effectiveness on the group's viruses
