How many days of taking oseltamivir are needed to recover from H1N1 influenza?

Influenza A refers to Type A influenza. The duration required for recovery from Influenza A after taking oseltamivir depends on the severity of the patient's condition. Generally, patients with Influenza A may start to improve after taking oseltamivir for five days. However, if the illness is severe, a longer recovery period may be needed. Symptoms of Influenza A infection include nasal congestion, sore throat, body aches, and fatigue. Patients should get adequate rest and avoid overexertion; maintain a light diet and avoid greasy or spicy foods; drink plenty of warm water daily to promote metabolism; and engage in regular exercise to strengthen immunity. If symptoms worsen, patients should seek medical attention promptly to prevent delayed treatment.
