Which Cold Medicine Other Than Acetaphetamine Be Taken?

What kind of cold medicine can someone who can t take accetiphetimine (sp.) take. It seems all of them except sudafed has that ingredient. It makes me sick. I have been told they are taking sudafed off the over the counter market, so need to find something else. Can you help?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

For cold you can take antihistamine drugs. Drugs like dextromethorphan and chlorpheneramine malate can be used. Acetaminophan is not used for cold. It reduce the headache and bodyache that is commonly associated with cold.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
