Unlike Airborne, ionized zinc has proven to decrease the severity and duration of the common cold. I believe it impedes the replication of the rhinovirus. For the best results, use the nasal spray (Zicam makes it), as that puts the zinc directly in your nose, where rhinoviruses replicate. Otherwise, make sure you use zinc gluconate lozenges, as studies from the Cleveland Clinic and elsewhere show that zinc acetate lozenges aren't affective.

Zofran. They give it to cancer patients to help with the nausea caused by chemotherapy and radiation. Thankfully I don't have cancer (knock on wood), but when I was in the hospital, I had that every 4 hours, and that was seriously the only thing that worked. Sadly it costs over $10/pill and my insurance won't cover it.

Collodial Silver. It's a wonderful natural antibiotic and does WONDERS when I feel a sinus infection coming on. You want a small ppm though, because larger ppm start to clump and your body can't absorb it. We have a friend why has a collodial silver maker, and she makes these great batches.

I used to be on antibiotics 3-4 times a year, for sinus infections that would turn into walking pneumonia. I started taking collodial silver at the first sign of sinus trouble in 2003 and I've not had to go to the doctor once for sinus issues!

The cammoille Tea is a wonderful otc remedy. Oatmeal (paste) for itching/rash. when it comes to colds Airborne and or Zicam. Cough...good ole Dimetapp and hot tea and honey for a cough... Vics vapor rub ( or as realatives in oklahoma claim: Salve), Heating pad a a warm compress and tons of sleep!

Until you find out you are allergic to chamomile. I can't tell you the number of times that it has been hidden in a product and is not disclosed. In October, I was having a small procedure done at the dermatologist and they applied a numbing cream. I went over the jar with the nurse, and they only listed the "active" ingredients. By evening, I was on the phone with the doctor for Prednisone.

My life-saver has been Clarinex.

You poor thing.....thats horrible. ok camomille for SOME is a good thing

I always take Emergen-C when I start to feel sick and it seems to help well. Does that count?

My good old fall back is Extra Strength Tylenol.
