To treat flu symptoms, you can recommend the customer takes paracetamol or ibuprofen* to resolve a temperature and aches and pains. Other advice you can provide can also help you to make any link sales such as:

  • Ensuring they keep hydrated by drinking plenty of water
  • Keep themselves warm
  • Have plenty of rest and sleep
  • Cover the mouth and nose when coughing/sneezing to catch the germs
  • Get rid of tissues fast as this can reduce the spread of infection
  • Wash hands frequently or use anti-bacterial hand gel
  • Provide general healthy living advice on diet and lifestyle as this can help to boost their immune system

* before recommending flu remedies, always check if the customer is taking any other medication, as some can interact with each other.
