Unani medicine provides treatments and preventative measures for swine flu. These include steam inhalation, maintaining good hygiene, consuming herbal medicines like Arq Ajeeb and Joshina syrup, and applying Kafoori balm to the chest and nose. Patients should see a physician if positive for the virus and may need to be hospitalized at higher centers. Real-time RT-PCR testing can confirm cases, while virus isolation is also diagnostic but may not provide timely results for clinical management.

•
Swine influenza (also known as Swine Flu) It
attacks the respiratory system, blocking the air
passage channels & is a respiratory disease
caused by influenza viruses that usually infect the
respiratory tract of pigs. These viruses have the
capacity to mutate, and are that is why easily
transmissible among humans. In humans, they
cause symptoms such as cough, fatigue, nausea,
vomiting, fever,may be diarrhoea, and body
aches.

3. Unani Medicine Treatment &
Prevention
• Prohibiting the growth &
complications of swine influenza
virus, improving immunity,
clearing air channel blockage &
toxins

4. 1.Steam inhalation
2. Developed GOOD HYGIENIC
CONDITIONS: Using warm/boiled water,
Avoid contact with patient without mask /
MASK MUST FOR PATIENTS
3.Arq AJeeb/ Kulzoom -4-8 drop in fresh
RO Water 4 times a day
4.Use Kafoori Balm : apply/rub gently on
chest, nose &/ Kafoor Tab smell it 5times a

7.HABBE GILOEY 2 Tab + Habbe Bukhar 1
as per advised by Physician

6. NOTE : if positive Test after
following tests hospitalized PATIENT
in higher centers

7. Confirmation diagnostic recommended tests
Real-time RT-PCR is the recommended test for
confirmation of influenza A (H1N)1 cases.
Currently, novel influenza A (H1N1) virus will
test positive for influenza A and negative for
H1 and H3 by real-time RT-PCR. If reactivity of
real-time RT-PCR for influenza A is strong (e.g.
Ct <30) it is more suggestive of a novel
influenza A (H1N1) virus. Confirmation as
novel influenza A (H1N1) virus by real-time
RT-PCR was originally performed only at CDC,
but at this time may be available in your state
public health laboratory.

8. Isolation of novel influenza A (H1N1)
virus is diagnostic of infection, but may
not yield timely results for clinical
management. A negative viral culture
does not exclude infection with novel
influenza A (H1N1) virus.
