For Influenza "Started showing symptoms of the flu around 4 a.m. yesterday morning, cold sweats and pounding headache. Temperature was 101.6. By 6 a.m., symptoms worsened with severe body aches, chills, and headache. Went to urgent care around 10 a.m., and the doctor gave me a free sample of Xofluza. Took the medication with food around 11 a.m. Still dealt with some gnarly symptoms all day yesterday with my temperature going up to 102.8. Napped on and off with cold sweats, headache, body aches. I also took ibuprofen every time my temperature had risen and headache worsened. By 11 a.m. today, my temperature was finally 97.9. My headache isn’t as severe, but it’s still there. My body aches are gone. By tomorrow, I should be good as new. I highly suggest this medication."

For Influenza "Son had the flu, I was his primary caregiver, and despite my best precautions, I started to feel bad at 9 am this morning. Temp was 100 by 12 pm, and my body started to ache. Decided to head straight to the urgent care, and they prescribed me Xofluza. Took my first and only dose at 2 pm, my temp was 102.8, and my muscles were aching as if I pulled my back. Nose was stuffy and had a bad headache. It is now 8:30 pm. My temp is 100.3, and my body aches are dramatically reduced, headache gone, and nose is no longer stuffy. I feel way better and have a feeling with a good night's rest I will be all better. My only advice is to start this ASAP, like I did."

For Influenza "I had all the classic influenza symptoms. I felt as if a truck had hit me. Day 2 of realizing I had influenza and not a cold, I was prescribed Xofluza. I took the medication at 11:30 a.m., and I was feeling miserable! I could not believe that by 4 p.m. I was already feeling significantly better, no more body aches or fever. My appetite is even back. I can’t believe how fast this medication worked."

For Influenza "I started showing flu signs about 10 a.m. Friday. Saw the doctor about 2. I had a fever of 101.5 and body aches. Started Xofluza about 3. With the help of over-the-counter drugs, the fever was gone by 9 p.m. Saturday, some body aches, plenty of diarrhea, and no energy, no appetite. Sunday, some appetite, lots of diarrhea, still no energy. Monday, day 4, very little energy, but I did get out of the house, still lots of diarrhea, about 50% of normal appetite. By the end of the day, I am drained, and all I did was sit through two meetings totaling 3 hours. We'll see what day 5 brings."
