What Does Flu Treatment Involve?

​

The flu—or influenza—is a viral infection that cannot be instantly cured with a pill. Your body’s immune system must work to fight off the virus, which may take several days. In the meantime, it’s important to prioritize rest, drink plenty of fluids, and stay at home until you feel better. 

​

So, how does Lifeline Urgent Care provide flu treatment for adults? Our physicians can prescribe medicines to combat disruptive flu symptoms like sore throat, cough, and congestion. Some patients may also benefit from antiviral medications that can shorten the duration and severity of symptoms. If you’re not entirely sure what’s causing you to feel sick, we’re equipped to safely perform drive-through flu testing as well as COVID-19 testing to ensure you receive appropriate care.
