My son had a mild case of the swine flu and I noticed that he was coughing and sniffling for about a month after wards. It was quite scary, specially because he is allergic to many medications. I read up on "kiwi drug" that a allergy spray is being used to treat cold and flu symptoms called Flonase over the counter. I have my son now taking it and its like hes a hole different person because Flonase has allowed him to rest. It took away all the flu symptoms.
