Ugh... the flu is in my house. My daughter has been home sick since Tuesday with the flu and now it looks like its my turn. Cough cough, hack hack. snif snif. Ugh.

Any home remedies or over the counter meds that work best for the flu? My daughter had Prescription Robitussin with codeine, but I can't refill it and won't go to the doctor for myself (I'll suffer like a big baby but won't spend the money for myself.)
