Depends on symptoms: The trick to treating a cold is to prioritize the worst of the symptoms. For example , if you have a stuffy nose, prioritize medicines for stuffiness, such as Pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine. Oxymetazoline (afrin (oxymetazoline) nose spray) is excellent and can be used with pills, but only for 3 days. For cough try mucinex-dm max strength- which has high dose guaifenesin. Ask pharm for help if you have high bp.

Nothing if you can: At present there is not a good treatment for the cold. Many of the symptoms can be relieved with Motrin if something must be taken. The key with a cold is to be sure it is a cold and not push yourself and to afford yourself the time and rest to get over it.
