Professional care for cold and flu symptoms, no office visit required.
When you’re dealing with body aches, a persistent cough, or the exhaustion of the flu, the last thing you want to do is sit in a crowded waiting room. Our providers can assess your symptoms and provide a treatment plan to manage your recovery from the comfort of your home.
Persistent cough and chest congestion
Body aches and fatigue
Nasal congestion and runny nose
Headaches related to cold or flu
Early-stage influenza (Flu)
Select your symptoms: Choose from our six care categories, including Sinuses, Cold & Flu, and STIs.
Quick check-in: Create your account, upload a valid ID (required for your safety), and complete a $39 consultation payment.
Share the details: Fill out a brief intake form about your health history and current symptoms.
Provider Review: A licensed clinician will review your case and message you through our secure platform within 4 business hours.
Treatment Plan: If treatment is appropriate, we will send a prescription directly to the local pharmacy of your choice.
Pharmacy Pick Up: Your pharmacy will notify you when your order is ready for pick up.
To ensure your safety, please seek immediate in-person medical attention at an urgent care or ER if you experience:
Shortness of breath
Difficulty breathing
Coughing up blood
Lips that are gray or blue colored
Chest pain or pressure not related to coughing or deep breathing
Depending on your symptoms and history, your provider may prescribe antiviral medications (for the flu), professional-strength cough suppressants, or other medications to manage your symptoms. You will receive a notification via your secure Zalud dashboard as soon as the provider has reviewed your case and made a decision.
Please contact your chosen pharmacy directly to confirm when your medication is ready for pickup.
Before you start, have these ready:
Your ID: A clear photo of your Driver’s License or Passport.
Your Pharmacy: Know the address of the pharmacy where you want to pick up your medication.
Our providers use a detailed medical intake form designed to capture the specific nature of your symptoms, your medical history, and any "red flag" indicators. By analyzing the duration of your symptoms, the presence of body aches, and the nature of your cough or congestion, our clinical team can safely determine if you are a candidate for asynchronous treatment or if an in-person physical exam is necessary for your safety.
Depending on your symptoms and history, your provider may prescribe antiviral medications for early-stage flu, professional-strength cough suppressants, or suggest specific over-the-counter treatments to manage your recovery.
You will receive a response from a provider within 4 hours, though it is often much faster.
During the intake process, you will be able to search for and select any pharmacy that is convenient for you. We can send prescriptions to all major chains and local independent pharmacies.
Your safety is our priority. If your provider determines that your symptoms require a physical exam, chest imaging, or immediate in-person attention, they will let you know via the dashboard and provide guidance on seeking care. In these cases, you will not be charged the consultation fee.
Currently, Zalud is only available for adults aged 18 and older. Because respiratory symptoms in children can escalate quickly and often require a physical exam to check lung sounds, we recommend seeing a pediatrician for anyone under 18.
The $39 fee covers your medical evaluation and the creation of your treatment plan by a Zalud provider. It does not include the cost of the medication at the pharmacy. If you have insurance, you can use it at your local pharmacy to pay for the prescription.
