Most people with coronavirus (COVID-19) or symptoms of COVID-19 feel better within a few weeks. You may be able to look after yourself at home while you recover. While you're ill, ask a friend, family member or neighbour to check up on you. Arrange a regular call or talk through a doorway (not face to face) so they can check how you're doing. Information: The NHS is offering antibody and antiviral treatments to people who have COVID-19 and are at highest risk of becoming seriously ill. Find out more about treatments for COVID-19 Treating a high temperature If you have a high temperature, it can help to: get lots of rest drink plenty of fluids (water is best) to avoid dehydration – drink enough so your pee is light yellow and clear take paracetamol or ibuprofen if you feel uncomfortable Is it safe to take ibuprofen if I have symptoms of COVID-19? There have been some news reports of anti-inflammatory painkillers, such as ibuprofen, making COVID-19 worse. The Commission on Human Medicines has now confirmed there is no clear evidence that using ibuprofen to treat symptoms such as a high temperature makes COVID-19 worse. You can take paracetamol or ibuprofen to treat symptoms of COVID-19. Try paracetamol first if you can, as it has fewer side effects than ibuprofen and is the safer choice for most people. Always follow the instructions that come with your medicine. Treating a cough If you have a cough, it's best to avoid lying on your back. Lie on your side or sit upright instead. To help ease a cough, try having a teaspoon of honey. But do not give honey to babies under 12 months. If this does not help, you could contact a pharmacist for advice about cough treatments. Important: Do not go to a pharmacy If you have COVID-19 symptoms, stay at home. Try calling or contacting the pharmacy online instead. Things to try if you're feeling breathless If you're feeling breathless, it can help to keep your room cool. Try turning the heating down or opening a window. Do not use a fan as it may spread the virus. You could also try: breathing slowly in through your nose and out through your mouth, with your lips together like you're gently blowing out a candle
