Treat symptoms: If you've had the flu, less than 30 hours - call your doctor - as you might benefit from a medication like Relenza or Tamiflu. If not, best bet is to treat symptomatically - formulas like Tylenol (acetaminophen) Multi-Symptom Severe work quite well. Drink lots of fluids (hot tea), long hot showers open up the nasal passage & chest congestion and rest is always a good bet.
