Treatment for swine flu will depend on the severity of the infection. Generally, the goal of treatment is to reduce symptoms and prevent complications. Common treatments include antiviral medications, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu) or zanamivir (Relenza), to reduce the severity and duration of the infection. In severe cases, hospitalization may be necessary for supportive care, such as supplemental oxygen, intravenous fluids, or antibiotics to treat secondary infections. In some cases, antiviral medications may also be used. Additionally, over-the-counter medications can be used to reduce the symptoms of fever, cough, and congestion.

Swine flu, also known as H1N1, is a contagious respiratory illness that affects pigs. Treatment usually involves antiviral medications, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu), zanamivir (Relenza), or peramivir (Rapivab). In addition to medications, supportive care such as rest, fluids, and fever reducers can help reduce symptoms. Vaccines are also available to prevent the spread of swine flu. To be most effective, these should be administered before infection occurs. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to discuss the best treatment options for swine flu.
