Schedule a consult: You cannot receive a prescription unless you schedule a consult. You can try some over the counter cold medications if you need them.

Hmm: I always like to examine my patients with "Flu" or sore throat. More often I find myself finding they have strep throat, ear infection and more on exam. I would unfortunately suggest a real exam in person to provide you the best diagnosis and treatment.
