Time. Fluids. Rest. Decongestants can help some with the stuffy symptoms but aren't a remedy.

Try Zicam. It's over the counter.

This works for me. Better to take it early…and often…every three hours. I’m a believer.

Flonase 2 sprays daily, Neti Pot. Nothing will make it better faster, but

Another think I find helpful if my lungs are OK is running. It honestly clears

Why is everyone so anti zpak? Helps me in like 24 hours instead of suffering

They aren't, for actual infections, but antibiotics not warranted for viral cold

seacougar

11/30/22 4:01pm

I hate them because they are used like this, and there is nothing that a z pack

cougaman

11/30/22 4:04pm

Well, I'm alergic so we'll save that debate for another time. Most likely just viral.
