A member asked:
Could you tell me what's the best medicine you can buy over-the-counter for an upper respiratory infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on symptoms: Symptoms of a URI can include cough, phlegm, nasal congestion, post nasal drainage. Otc meds or combinations can help, ask your pharmacist to point you to the correct medications in the otc area or read the labels for symptoms that you are suffering from.
