I have a throbbing headache w/ major congestion. Been taking claritin-d, tylenol+ Mucinex (guaifenesin) for a few days but nothing helps. Any other suggestions?
Headache and congest. Could be a sinus infection
if so, it is easily treated with the proper antibiotic and prednisone.

Could the claritin-d I'm taking for a bad cold + major head congestion be making my headache even worse? Taking for days now + throbbing even more!
Possibly. Sometimes different people react differently to otc meds, the Claritin (loratadine) or the pseudofed can cause the headache. Try the claritan with out the "d" and see if the samething happens. But if your headache continues to be significant, consider eval by your primary doctor.
