zinc and potassium are only dangerous when taking in large amounts at once or over an extended period of time. You take a single pill every 4-6 hours and obviously won't be using airborne on a daily pro-longed basis (months)

 

"colds" are viruses not bacterial. over the counter meds only hide symptoms while your body kills the virus. it takes time and alcohol will inhibit your body's ability to fight the virus. zinc has been proven to shorten the duration by assisting your body in fighting the virus.

i use "cold-eeze" lozenges. they are not some homeopathic bs. they are clinincally proven to shorten the duration of the virus. (you can do a bit of research). always start using the lozenges at the first sign of the "cold". when i do that, my colds last about two to three days instead of ten.

"alka-seltzer plus" helps me go about my business while my body fights the virus if i'm not in a position to just rest.

 

thinks back to early 90's SNL...Just have some ComaDose, "contains a mild sedditive, and alot of it"

Colt 45D "You wont get rid of your cold, you just wont give a F**** that you have a cold" (Dave Chappel SHow)

is there a show on TV that didnt do a hilarious rendition of a cold medicine

yes, Walker, Texas Ranger didnt, but then again Chuck Norris Could just kick the S**** outta you and im sure the cold would go with it.....

but i would say anything that would make you sleep, thus you dont have to worry about the medicine you take

 

take 2 multivitamins per day for no more than 2 days. that should help kick start the immune system.

 

I second that! I love thera flu, especially the lemon flaovor, and put a spoonful of sugar in it (otherwise its really bitter). I'm telling you that stuff does wonders.

 

Here's my plan of attack. It works great.

In the morning:
Vitamin C
A shot of Zicam
Alka Seltzer Plus Cold

Thru the day:
suck on Cold-ease lozengers

Back home in the evening:
More Vitamin C
More Zicam
More Alka Seltzer Plus
