Specifically, 14.7 percent of the total showed some abnormal behaviour including minor symptoms, such as saying something strange. Of them, only 3.2 percent acted dangerously such as jumping off buildings, the ministry said.
Another working team said nearly 40 percent of patients who acted abnormally had not taken the drug and warned that all flu patients could show erratic behaviour.
An investigation last year by the US Food and Drug Administration into the deaths in Japan concluded there was no link with Tamiflu.
Swiss drugmaker Roche, the manufacturer of Tamiflu, has repeatedly denied any connection between the drug and the incidents.
