Covid medication confusion

2021-05-06 15:19:36
My mother has had covid for 11 days now. She got tested positive 5 days back. Unfortunately we were unable to get antiflu 75mg until today which was recommended by our family doctor. So, should she take the antiflu 75 mg now? She hasn't had fever for 6-7 days. Is it okay if she takes the medicine after 11 days of covid?

Antiflu 75 doesnt have any role in management of covid 19 so their is no need to take it .Their is not a single data  that had shown any promising out come after using this drug give your mom high protein diet Plenty of fluids Keep her hydrated Follow covid sops
