The reason you drink 7up when sick is the 7up is a gag suppressant and also the 7Up helps to settle your stomach.

The 7up helps settle the stomach with its slight fizz and replenish fluids and glucose lost by vomiting and diarrhea.

You should drink green tea when you're sick.

Green tea is very good for you when you're sick with the cold, flu or any other virus.

Even regular tea is also good for the flu, cold and other viruses.

Drinking tea does help with the flu and is good for when you're sick.

Tea is good for drinking when you have the flu or a cold and it does really help.

Tea is very healthy for you and helps flush out toxins from your body which means the tea can help flush out the flu virus from your body and the tea helps to hydrate you as well.

If you have a sore throat you can add some honey to the hot tea and the hot tea and honey will help you soothe your sore throat.

Sprite is good for the flu and helps you stay hydrated and also when you have the stomach flu or a stomach ache Sprite is also good for those ailments as well.

Other good drinks for the flu or stomach flu or stomach ache are tea, Gatorade, Ginger Ale, Pedialyte and even chicken or bone broth.

The flu virus usually lasts from 7 to 14 days and goes away on it's own with rest, plenty of fluids etc.

There's no cure for the flu and not much a doctor or the hospital can do unless the flu virus gets worse or you get dehydrated.

You need to stay hydrated, drink plenty of water, eat some soup such as chicken noodle soup and get plenty of rest and take some cold and flu medicine to help with the symptoms and within 7 to 14 days the flu should be gone.

If not go to the doctor or urgent care or the hospital if the flu gets worse.

Most cases of the flu resolve on their own without treatment and there's no cure for the flu and nothing the hospital can really do for the flu unless it gets worse.

If you get dehydrated, get really weak, have confusion, have a high fever that won't go down or you think the flu is turning into pneumonia then go to a walk in clinic or the hospital.

In rare cases the flu can get serious enough to kill someone but it's rare that happens.

If the flu gets worse or lasts longer than a few weeks then go to the hospital.

Also you can take Tamiflu to help with the flu symptoms and help you recover from the flu faster.

You are still contagious with the flu virus while on Tamiflu.

Taking the Tamiflu does not make you less contagious but instead Tamiflu works to help fight the flu virus off before it has time to infect your body fully.

For the Tamiflu to fully work you need to take the Tamiflu within 48 hours of the symptoms of the flu or before the symptoms appear or it will not work.

You still will remain contagious with the flu virus until the flu virus has fully left your body.

Also taking Tamiflu for the flu can make you tired.

One of the side effects of taking Tamiflu is fatigue so you can become drowsy and tired when taking Tamiflu so you should avoid driving or operating any machinery when taking Tamiflu.

However the flu itself can make you tired but Tamiflu has been known to make some people tired which is not a bad thing as it helps you rest to recover from the flu virus.

Other side effects of taking Tamiflu are nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, abdominal pain, headaches and nosebleeds.

Tamiflu will work to prevent the flu if you take the Tamiflu 48 hours before the onset of the flu.

If you take the Tamiflu after you get the flu symptoms then the flu symptoms will still linger and you'll still suffer from the flu.

Tamiflu works to get rid of the flu virus before it has time to fully infect you but once you're fully infected with the flu then nothing will work except rest, staying hydrated and then within a week to 14 days the flu should be gone.

You must take Tamiflu 48 hours before the onset of the flu for it to be effective.

Tamiflu is a prescription only flu medicine and does work but it's also costly and sometimes you'll need to pay out of pocket for it.

If you start feeling the symptoms of the flu then see a doctor and get prescribed the Tamiflu and then take the Tamiflu and you should feel better within a few days.

But continue taking the Tamiflu for up to 6 weeks or until the flu has gone away.
