TBH there is no medication for it , it's not bacterial infection so anti-biotic is useless as well. But if someone has other health issue and complications arise then there are medications for those problems. I have it with mild symptoms and it's almost a week now and i have been advised to self isolate take paracetamol ( for fever and pain) , plenty of rest and good diet and if there is even slight problem in breathing then call emergency services . All my family members are confined to separate rooms and separate bathrooms.
I hope u get well soon. Its true it has no medication but it is also true the disease leads to several complications. If the symptoms are not well managed it can lead to serious problems and sometimes it can also lead to death. Unfortunately this is also a new disease so mostly even doctors are not fully aware of the complications. So its good if the patient consults a doctor even with the mildest of symptoms for proper guidance cause nobody knows how this disease will affect them in long term.
