Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your symptoms indicates influenza. COVID (coronavirus disease) could happen in vaccinated individuals as well but are often less severe and can be treated.

Follow the below steps;

1. Take complete blood count, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), serum ferritin, serum D-dimer, and chest X-ray tests.

2. Do steam inhalation.

3. Gargle with warm water.

4. I suggest tablet Tylenol twice daily for three days. If it is not available, then I suggest tablet Paracetamol 500 mg thrice daily for three days.

5. I suggest tablet N-Acetyl Cysteine 600 mg once daily for five days.

6. I suggest tablet Vitamin C 500 mg twice daily for two weeks.

7. I suggest tablet Fexofenadine 180 mg once daily for five days.

8. I suggest tablet Aspirin 150 mg once daily for a week.

9. I suggest capsule Saccharomyces boulardi 250 mg twice daily for 5 days.
