How Can Severe Cold Be Treated?

I am a 69 year-old female weighing 180 pounds. I have a seriously running nose. I found red tables which had fallen out of their box, yet still sealed in the bubble wrap. The name of the medicine is: Phenylephrine They are little round pills. I do not know how many to take. They expire on 11/2017
