The respiratory illness season lasts annually from October to March. Over these 6 months, more than half of Russians experience unpleasant symptoms: sore throat, runny nose, cough, fever. Surely, each of us has its own “proprietary” methods of dealing with seasonal ailments.

Well, today we bring to your attention Top best remedies for colds and flu, including both traditional methods of treatment and drugs.

  • 10. Ginger tea with lemon
  • 9. Cranberry or lingonberry fruit drink
  • 8. Antiviral drugs (Arbidol, Viferon, Tsitovir, Reaferon, etc.)
  • 7. Drugs that eliminate the symptoms of acute respiratory infections (Teraflu, Tamiflu, Antigrippin, Coldrex)
  • 6. Barrier protection
  • 5. Vaccination (Influenza, Influvac, Vaxigripp)
  • 4. Essential oils (mint, lemon, eucalyptus, fir, rosemary)
  • 3. A decoction or syrup of rose hips
  • 2. Alkaline drink (mineral water, milk with soda)
  • 1. Humid and cool air

10. Ginger tea with lemon

The drink is a powerful immunostimulating and warming agent. For cooking, just add half a teaspoon of ground ginger to a hot water or a small piece of fresh root. Infuse the drink for 5 minutes and add a slice of lemon. Take half a glass of freshly brewed tea twice a day. If you are not allergic to honey, you can sweeten them with slightly cooled tea.

9. Cranberry or lingonberry fruit drink

Both berries have a pronounced bactericidal property. In addition, they are rich in vitamin C and excellently increase the body's resistance. If there is no desire to drink fruit drink, you can grind the berries with sugar and eat “in the bite” with tea.

8. Antiviral drugs (Arbidol, Viferon, Tsitovir, Reaferon, etc.)

They are prescribed both for treatment and for the prevention of respiratory viral infections. True, doing this uncontrollably of your own will is still not worth it. It is worth saying that in foreign practice in many countries such drugs with easily occurring SARS are not prescribed at all.

7. Drugs that eliminate the symptoms of acute respiratory infections (Teraflu, Tamiflu, Antigrippin, Coldrex)

It is important to remember that such drugs do not cure colds and flu, but they greatly alleviate the condition. Symptomatic preparations contain substances that reduce swelling of the mucous membranes, eliminating headache, aching joints and temperature.

6. Barrier protection

Masks, as well as oxolinic and viferon ointments, make it difficult for viruses to enter the body. It is advisable to use such means if you are in contact with a patient or visiting potentially dangerous public places. Upon returning home, it is advisable to rinse the nasal mucosa with saline or a special tool, for example, Aqualor, Aqua maris. Such irrigation will help to remove viruses from the mucosa, if they still got there.

5. Vaccination (Influenza, Influvac, Vaxigripp)

A flu vaccine is given before the onset of the ARVI season, since the body will need some time to develop immunity. In addition, the vaccine can be made only to a completely healthy person without signs of SARS. The choice of drug is best left to the discretion of the doctor. Vaccination does not protect against viruses by 100%, but vaccinated people tolerate acute respiratory viral infections much easier than not vaccinated.

4. Essential oils (mint, lemon, eucalyptus, fir, rosemary)

They have antiseptic, bactericidal, antiviral and immunostimulating properties. The best method of application is the installation of aromatic lamps with natural oils in the room, as well as the application of a few drops of oil on a napkin, which is placed in the breast pocket of the clothes.

3. A decoction or syrup of rose hips

The high content of vitamin C and immunostimulating properties make rosehip a valuable remedy for influenza and the common cold. Hypotonic patients should take into account that rosehip lowers blood pressure.

2. Alkaline drink (mineral water, milk with soda)

A lack of moisture prevents the body from quickly coping with the disease. It is alkaline drink that helps thin the sputum, improves the discharge of mucus, allows you to quickly fill up the lack of fluid in the body and cope with intoxication. Milk with soda helps well with a debilitating cough, if there is no food intolerance to dairy products.

1. Humid and cool air

Humidity of about 50% and temperature in the region of +18 significantly reduce the chance of infection - after all, such conditions are less comfortable for viruses than hot and dry air. In addition, if the disease has already begun, then in such an atmosphere the patient breathes easier, the cough decreases, the temperature decreases faster.

Contraindications are possible, consult with your doctor before use.
