A real boss would understand and NOT want you to come in. FLU spreads like wildfire at work if you aren't EXTREMELY careful about spreading the germs. Last thing he should want is a FLU outbreak among the workers

lol....any real doctor will tell you there aren't any known meds that can fight flu A or B...your body fights it just fine but you have to rest and stay hydrated

my daughter took it once and diminished her symptoms. its not for everryone and there are some scary side effects. oh and this dont cure it, it just helps reduce the symptoms.

lessening symptoms and fighting a virus are 2 different things...if it lessens the syptoms, hey it may be worth it. But for me, the side effects usually outweigh the original symptoms

Yeah, if its something I just have to fight out, i can probably do it w/o extra meds

lol...its like meds for an ulcer. Maybe cause nausea, headaches, cramping, vomiting, loss of consciousness, diarrhea, or excessive bleeding. I think i'll just stick with pepto.
