How do I get over a flu without taking all these pills?

Lots of fluids, lots of rest…that’s it.

A lot of water

It’s called taking a shower and putting vicks

You could break the pills into pieces and swallow them down with water or in food, if you can’t swallow them. Rub some petroleum jelly underneath the nose or on the chest so it’s vapors are inhaled can help soothe the irritation of a dry and raw nose and throat. Spicy Food If your throat isn’t irritated and you can handle it, eating something spicy can temporarily clear up a stuffy head. Chicken Soup Though there hasn’t yet been any research that supports this, chicken soup remains a popular folk remedy for helping cure colds. Steam Inhalation This is effective for colds caused by members of the rhinovirus family due to their inability to survive at elevated temperatures. It can be achieved by sitting in a hot sauna or breathing the steam produced by hot water. Be careful not to burn yourself, and if you choose to sit in a sauna, make sure you stay hydrated. http://funadvice.com/r/bfs54v7fjse

You could always try taking the liquid form of medicine – not all medications to alleviate symptoms are in pill form. As suggested, also be sure to take in a lot of fluids and make sure that you do eat something to keep some strength. Soups, crackers and other light foods are good.

Otherwise, you’ll have to wait until it passes.

Take hot lime tea, have enough rest, I mean sleeping. Make yourself warm enough cause the cold will make it worse. Get well soon.

Pills are not going to help you get over the flu, (if it is the flu), it’s a virus… The pills are to help with the symptoms…

Once you have the flu, nothing will really help you get rid of it. Antiviral medications may help shorten the duration of the illness, but they will not get rid of it. Since you already have the flu, its pretty much a waiting game. By the flu being a virus, the only way to not get the flu is through a vaccination. Vaccinations are always 100% effective though.

Lots of orange juice, and green tea. :) They are high in vitamin C and can give you that extra boast that you need to get over it.

Your not suppose to get the flu shot while you have the flu. Its an overload to your system.

I meant to say vaccinations are NOT always 100%….sorry!
