Which type of antibiotics can help with flu?

Flu is caused by a group of viruses known as the Influenza viruses.

Antibiotics act on bacteria and will not have any effect on viruses.

Treatments for flu that you can get from your doctor are the antivirals known as oseltamivir and zanamivir.

If you wish to use something more natural, we would recommend the use of Echinacea.
