What medications should be taken for influenza A and B?
Disease description:
Recently infected with the flu, not sure whether it's influenza A or B. May I ask what medications should be taken for influenza A and B?
The main drug treatments for influenza A and B are antiviral medications, such as oseltamivir and zanamivir. For other symptoms caused by influenza A and B, such as fever and cough, symptomatic treatment drugs can be used. For example, acetaminophen or ibuprofen may help relieve fever and pain; certain cough suppressants can also alleviate coughing. Medications for treating influenza A and B should be used under a doctor's guidance to avoid drug misuse and adverse reactions. Meanwhile, maintaining good personal hygiene, engaging in regular exercise, and enhancing immunity are also important measures for the prevention and management of influenza A and B. Treatment plans should be tailored according to each patient's specific condition.
