Cold Medicine

Humans are prone to get a cold (or flu) at some point in their lifetime. Some actually get the cold three or more times per year. What brand of Cold Medicine works best for you? Consider the following:

* It last long
* It can be bough off the counter
* It is not expensive
* It works fast
* It is drowsy or non-drowsy
* You are able to function well after taking the drug

Medicine Cold

I hate taking medicine in general. Cold medicine makes me really sleepy but I can still function. I don't get sick allot and tend to stay with stuff like claratin and benedryl because of my blood pressure. Most cold medicines are not acceptable to take with high blood pressure because they will raise it or lower it too low with the medicine you are taking.

I never get sick. Not really. Sometimes just a cold. When I do, I just drink lots of flat soda and if I get a fever I take tylenol. I will take sudafed sometimes if I get runny or stuffy nose with my cold.

Medicine Cold

I have high blood pressure. When I get sick I just continue to use my allergy medicine. I don't take anything else. Of course, if I have a fever, which is rare, I will take tylenol, but otherwise, I just let the virus run its course.

Medicine Cold

I love DaQuil in the day time and NiQuil in the night time. That original green flavor knocks you out for a good nights sleep!

Cold Medicine

Comtrex is the best, because they have a variety of medicines for specific problems. I specifically suffer with head colds and Comtrex is the only brand that targets the head specifically and works.

Cold Medicine

Head colds are usually the worst for me ( I am presently recovering from one ) and I will take Advil Cold and Sinus for my congestion. It helps me a lot (although temporarily). The Ibuprofen also helps with body aches which can really keep you bed-ridden because it just hurts to move around. Drowsy vs non-drowsy doesn't seem to work for me; that is to say I don't see a difference when taking either one.

Lucky you! One day I was feeling so sick, I took two drowsy Comtrex...my goodness! I felt like my brain just went off...Every movement like walking or eating was slowly done! It was awful.

When I have the cold, I choose Comtrex, is the best one for me.
