How Can Cold And Sore Throat Be Treated?
This is probably a stupid question but I got some Family Wellness brand max strength mucus relief; cold, flu and sore throat liquid and am told it will help greatly but it s late here and I am wondering if it will keep me up or if it could cause drowsiness or effect neither one? Thanks for your time! -Melanie

dear user
common cold is vira infection that infect alot of people and you need not to worry
these symptoms will take few days and decrease gradually as it is the normal course of common cold
try to drink alot of fluids and bed rest ,avoid any stress or effort
you can take tylenol as analgesic for relief of symptoms
also gargle your throat with saline to decontaminate it
if symptoms persist you can take amoxicillin as it will help alot
dont worry as improvement will occur rapidly in few days
hope that helps you
