What is the treatment for swine flu?
Your doctor will either prescribe Tamiflu™ or Relenza™ and give you instructions to follow these directions: 1) Stay at Home! Do not go to work or to public gatherings to spread the virus around. 2) Remember one sneeze in a crowded room can spread to everyone in the room very rapidly. 3) Take ibuprofen (Motrin™) or acetaminophen (Advil™ or Tylenol™). 4) Stay well hydrated by drinking extra fluids, but avoid milk as it can thicken secretions. 5) If you feel weak, stay in bed. 6) Cough or sneeze in a tissue and then throw the used tissue away immediately. PLEASE do not put it in your pocket and contaminate your pocket or leave lying around for someone else to pick up. 7) Consider yourself contagious until you do not run a fever for 24 hours without taking ibuprofen (Motrin™) or acetaminophen (Advil™ or Tylenol™). 8) Wear a surgical mask when a person is within 6 feet of you.
