Of course you are resting and drinking extra fluids (64-80 oz of water or juice). Remember none of these things is a cure, just gives some relief (which is what you asked for).

And you will also check with your provider (you know I have to say that!) Commonly considered OK in moderation:

  • Tylenol
  • Saline nasal spray or drops
  • Afrin regular nasal spray
  • Tavist D
  • Sudafed

Remember a local pharmacist is also a good resource!

Hope you are feeling better soon!
