There is an over-the counter product called Oscillococcinum that is advertised to reduce severity and duration of flu symptoms. It is a non-drowsy formulation. We have tried it and found it helpful if used as directed. You can find more information on the websites I've listed below. Drugstore.com has a sale on it right now. So does herbsmd.com

The Flu is a virus, so you really have to let the flu run its course. drinking plenty of fluids and getting rest will certainly assist in getting better. There are some prescription medications that can shorten the course of the flu, but you will need to see your physician about this. Take a look at the Center for Disease Control for more information.

There is no real way to cure flu.
Make sure that your mouth temperature does not rise above 39*C or 101*F; if it does, go to hospital.
Lay in bed for extra time every day and allow some fresh air to circulate to stop other catching your infection so easily.
Do not go near people.
Do not allow your self to get too hot or cold.

Rest and pound those vitamins!! Get the good vitamins from GNC (Ultra Mega) though, not the crappy stuff like Centrum or store brands. The levels of vitamins in Ultra Mega's far exceed the levels in any other brands.
