After some research it seems that the answer is 'NO' if you take it according to your doctor's recommendations. Their official website lists the following possible sideffects:

"Rare but serious skin reactions and allergic reactions have been reported. Stop taking TAMIFLU and call your doctor if you experience any of these reactions, as they could be very serious.

People with the flu, particularly children and adolescents, may be at an increased risk of self injury and confusion shortly after taking TAMIFLU and should be closely monitored for signs of unusual behavior. A healthcare professional should be contacted immediately if the patient taking TAMIFLU shows any signs of unusual behavior.

The most common side effects of TAMIFLU are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. TAMIFLU is generally well tolerated."

Generally, it seems that TAMIFLU is harmless, but you should contact your doctor before using it. Especially if you have allergies, are pregnant, nursing or have a health condition.
