These days everybody knows the answer to the questions. “What is swine flu and what are swine flu symptoms?” But there are still some other questions that need an answer and are very important.

Who are the high risk candidates for swine flu?
It’s seen that young children and the elderly have a particularly high risk of contracting this disease. Moreover, people with ongoing health conditions like cardiovascular, liver, and kidney problems are also high risk candidates. Those suffering from blood, neurological and neuromuscular disorders also come in the high risk category and have more than normal chances of contracting severe swine flu.

How does swine flu spread?
The spread of swine flu is like regular flu. Germs are delivered from an infected person to a non-infected person directly through droplets from coughing and sneezing by the infected person. Moreover, if a person touches an object or a surface that has been recently touched by an infected person, and then goes on to touch his eyes mouth or nose; the germs are thus delivered into the body of that person leading to swine flu infection.

Treatment – Tamiflu or Relenza
One can treat, not cure swine flu. Doctors use various anti-viral drugs for the treatment of this flu and the two most common prescription medications that are used are Tamiflu and Relenza.

The difference between Relenza and Tamiflu lies in the fact that Relenza is inhaled while Tamiflu is available in the form of pills. Otherwise there is very little to choose between the two. Pregnant women are usually prescribed Relenza for Swine flu treatment or treatment of other viral conditions because inhaling this drug means that less amount of the drug is absorbed into the blood stream. This makes it a safer bet during pregnancy.
