what do you take for a bad cold?

[vickysue]

lots and lots of hot lemon and honey tea also orange (fresh) juice and honey. Drinks lots of ginger tea. Bed rest for a coupe of days. I never take otc. med. taste awful and not really good for a person. Also eat light meals like chicken noodle soup. Stay away from milk. It increases the music in your lungs.

[HuffmanFamilyof4]

A couple shots of Bourbon.

I like Mucinex, hot steaming showers, humidifiers, Vicks, herb tea, lots of liquids, and sleep.

lots of rest, vitamin c , water nette pot or a saline rinse is what we use. My 6 year old is faithful with the saline rinse becuase her colds eventually end up as a sinusinfection and antibiotics are not good if you end up getting it too often.

Buckleys Syrup. Tastes like a bad day on the road, but it does work.
