Recommendations for beating the Flu
Posted on 6/12/23 at 8:45 am

I’m looking for over the counter recommendations to beat the flu.
I usually get flu like symptoms twice a year and would like to have alternate solutions to antibiotics and prescription drugs.
Thanks in advance.

If it's the flu, you don't need antibiotics.

800mg of Ibuprofen always helped me feel a hell of a lot better

Time.....
Pretty sure 99% of the things you get for treating the flu are to help ease the symptoms, not "beat" the flu. I think something like Theraflu actually acts on the virus, but you are looking at a prescription and it's got to be done pretty early. Otherwise it's just laying in bed until its done.

antibiotics? The Flu is caused by a virus, not bacteria.

Put a tampon in. That should help you.

Why do you get "the flu" twice a year. Are you sucking on door handles in your spare time?

A buddy traveled for business. He would get the flu all the time from being on a plane. He started using Zicam swabs before getting on the plane and no more flu...

Anytime you have respiratory stuff going on, it doesn’t hurt to up your Vitamin D and Vitamin C. Rest and fluids help as well. But don’t stay bedridden, get up and move around some when you’re able to.
Flu is a virus that has to run its course. You’d only need antibiotics if you develop a secondary infection.

Get more vitamin D throughout the year.
You will be less likely to ever need to beat the flu.

I just had a bad bout with it. Never felt so bad in my life. First time I’ve been sick since before COVID.
Just keep throwing stuff at it until it’s gone. Sleep, water, vitamins, mucinex, antihistamine, Benadryl, ibuprofen.

Twice a year seems excessive.

In those patients who do have influenza, we have treated them with the vitamin D hammer, as coined by my colleague. This is a 1-time 50 000 IU dose of vitamin D3 or 10 000 IU 3 times daily for 2 to 3 days.
