Its already too late for this session. By the time you know you are sick your body is already fighting the infection. If you had tamiflu (I probably misspelled it and you would need to see your doctor to get a script for it discuss this with your doctor) Also high doses of Vitamin C and B12 also help early on but they must be taken at the onset of symptoms. Occasionally the C and B12 will help control symptoms but the course of the disease remains the same. How you feel while recovering is the only benefit. I personally take a time release C and B12 (Bronson brand is my favorite and has worked for me since the days of Linus Pauling they haven't changed their label since then also.) I personally take 1g C and 1mg (1000 mcg) B12 time release every 15 min for four doses BID Q12h. Discuss this with your doctor. Don't do it without the consent of your doctor You will need to see the doctor to get the tamiflu.
IN the mean time don"t die. Good luck

I don't know what it is called, but they now have a product that you take at the first sign of the flu or a cold and it is supposed to knock it out in three or four days. You can get it at any drug store.

Plenty of fluids take the multi if you can go out and get C's this is good too It is really hard to ward it off I just got over one but it was not that long I just made sure I got plenty of rest took a vitamin C everyday and got over it though it sucks. Good Luck hope you feel better soon!

My parents always use oil of oregano. They buy it at natural food stores. I always use zinc tablets, vitiman C, and use a humidifier at night.
