I'm abroad, and caught a terrible cold, are there some meds apart from paracetamol, i can take? i have high bp, so i cannot take all medicines.

Illness traveling: The unfortunate experience of becoming ill while traveling is a difficult situation. Avoid self treatment and medications based on "your" diagnosis, which is often incorrect. Simple problems like upper respiratory or GI illness can become more serious, and actually result in hospitalization, a costly proposition overseas. See a physician and consider travelers insurance in future.
