About this listen

Cold and flu season is here—and the symptoms can be confusing.

Is it just a cold, or something more serious? In this first episode of Beyond the Script, Dr. Jake Goodman is joined by CVS Pharmacy Region Director Gaurang Trivedi to break down what really matters during peak sick season.

Together, they cover how to tell the difference between a cold and the flu, when symptoms should raise red flags, when to ask for advice, and why vaccines remain one of the most effective tools for protecting yourself and your community.

They also tackle common myths—from vitamin C and bundling up to hot tea and humidifiers—and explain what science actually says.

You’ll hear practical, pharmacist-backed advice on testing, treatment, vaccines, and when it’s time to see a doctor, all in a clear, judgment-free conversation designed to help you feel more confident about your health this winter.
