A QUICK GUIDE TO HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES USEFUL TO OFFSET SYMPTOMS OF
INFLUENZA

 If you come down with the flu, act early. Choose the remedy that most matches your symptoms. Try a potency no higher than 30C. One way to take remedies is to drop 1 to 3 pellet(s) into 4 ounces of water. Stir and take 1 teaspoon or a sip every 15 minutes for the first tow hours. If you fall asleep, the remedy was a good choice and you are on your way to getting well. Continue the remedy at less frequent intervals, every half hour, once and hour, etc. If you have no relief, switch to a better choice. These remedies are available in one handy package of 30C potency in half-dram vials.
