<

Influenza A is a type of virus that causes influenza (the flu), a highly contagious respiratory illness. Flu symptoms hit fast, unlike a cold, and can lead to serious complications for some.

Symptoms of Influenza A

Common symptoms of the influenza A include:

  • Headache

  • Aching muscles
  • Shortness of breath
  • Eye pain
  • Sore throat
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Tiredness and weakness
  • Vomiting and diarrhea

What are the treatment options for influenza A?

The treatment options for influenza A include antiviral drugs, over-the-counter medication, and rest and hydration. Antiviral drugs, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu) or zanamivir (Relenza), can reduce recovery time by a couple of days and may prevent serious complications such as pneumonia. These drugs work best when started early, such as one to two days after symptoms begin. Over-the-counter medications such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) can help to ease symptoms such as achiness, but they do not treat the virus itself and cannot shorten illness duration. Rest and hydration are also important treatment options for influenza A, as they can help the body fight the infection and alleviate symptoms.

It is important to note that people at higher risk of flu complications, such as young children, adults 65 years of age and older, pregnant people, and people with certain medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease, should seek immediate medical treatment if they get flu symptoms. In some cases, a doctor may prescribe antiviral medication to fight the infection. According to the CDC, most people with flu have mild illness and do not need medical care or antiviral drugs. However, if symptoms worsen or persist, it is important to speak to a doctor.
