disease that sometimes occurs in children that are

infected with the flu, pneumonia, or chicken pox

(The Common Cold 1-3). Because there are so

many kinds of combinations many people tend to

become confused when bombarded with all of the

adds for cold medicines. Above all "Sudafed" and

"Tylenol Flu" are rated the highest for the relief of

the symptoms of the common cold according to

Laurie Tarkan of Good Housekeeping (212). She

strongly suggests that before taking any

medication, over the counter or not, you should

seek a doctor’s help in choosing a drug or a

combination of drugs. When shopping for a cold

remedy remember that there are less expensive

generic brands that contain the same drugs and

work just as well. If any symptoms change or

become worse than you think that they should be,

within reason, it is suggested that you seek a

doctor’ help. This is suggested because many

serious illnesses start out with cold-like symptoms

that become much worse. They might not be able

to cure the common cold ever, but there are now

drugs in the works that can help to ease the

symptoms and cause little or no side effects.

Overall, colds are not killers, most of the time, just

rather annoying to have. There are drugs that can

put a stop to all of the annoying symptoms, but the

main idea for "curing" a cold is to use a medical

practice aptly dubbed the "Tincture of Time." To

speed recovery, sleep as much as possible, and

eat very little.
