Advice on Managing Flu Symptoms with Ayurvedic Remedies - #50433

Client_a565d7

My friend is a 40 year old male, has a Vata constitution and is currently having cough, fever, and symptoms of flu. His location is in Portugal, where we are in the winter time. He has a mostly dry cough but sometime coughs up phlegm of yellow/green color. A bit of sweating at night, and occasional low fever. He has Trikatu and Sitopaladi churna with him. Would it be better to take only one of these or to take them both? Or would that be too aggravating for Pitta? Should he take either of these before, during, or after meals? And should he take these with ghee, honey, warm water, or something else ? Dhanyavad!

How long has your friend been experiencing these flu symptoms?:

- Less than 1 week

What is the severity of his cough?:

- Moderate, frequent

Has he experienced any digestive issues recently?:

- Occasional bloating
