Best Cold Medicine?

I have been sick as hell and think I have tried every one of them in the past week. Here is how I would rate them...

1. Comtrex severe cold and sinus
2. Theraflu...apple cinnamon tea shit
3. Dayquil caplets
4. Robitussin Cold and Cough


Let me know of any better ones....a shot of ginger brandy works well also.

For coughs take Buckley's, for sore throat just gargle with salt water.

For a cough I usually go with the ones called "fishermans friends"...they are strong as hell but they work pretty decent

Chicken soup, Vitamin C, and a humidifier.

A couple of Grey Goose and OJ's don't hurt either.

Alka Seltzer Plus Night-Time Cold is the best over the counter cold remedy that I have found. They used to have an even better formula called "Cold Night-Time Plus" which was even better but the FDA found something wrong with one of the key ingrediants and took it off the shelves.

That shit rocked!

Plus Night Time Cold

Eucalyptus, all natural and works great. Put it on a tissue and breath it in, also put some on your chest.
