Antivirals and the Pill

This notice appeared in BMJ Learning today:

Are you up to date with the latest advice to give your patients about swine flu? Are you sure you know what to say to patients who are obese or overweight? What advice should you give about interactions between antivirals and the pill? To get the answers listen to our latest audio module.

Swine flu: communicating with patients

http://learning.bmj.com/learning/se...41286&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Emailvision

This is a professional education module for HCW's in Britain - so I don't have access to the full module.

So what's the basis for this line about the interactions between antivirals and the pill (birth control I presume)? Is Tamiflu etc ineffective when a woman is on the pill?
