The medicine that you are thinking about is a flu remedy which is available in healthfood stores and many drug stores. It is a homeopathic remedy which is specific for bird flu.  It is spelled Oscillococcinum and is manufactured by the company Boiron.\nIt reduces the strength of the symptoms and turns it into a mild case of flu instead of a bad one.\nIt must be taken as soon as you start feeling a liitle off in order to be effective.  If you wait untill you are really ill, it doesn't work.

An ER resident taught me this one.  Chew ice.  Not drink a cold drink, but chew the ice.  You will be amazed.

Pain is my friend.  Ibuprofen for muscle pain, Vicoden for moderate acute pain, Percocet for severe acute pain, Oxycontin if you have to take so much that the APAP ( Tylenol ) in Vicoden or Percocet makes your ears ring.  Combinations of the above are also available.   You have to sign a contract to get Oxy.  Morphine works too but it plugs you up.

A cold is a virus--you CANNOT get rid of it sooner.  It will end when it runs its course.  However there are several OTC medications that can relieve the symptoms of the cold, but it doesn't end it any sooner.  If you get a cold and take medication it will be over in about a week.  If you get a cold and you DON'T take any medication it will be over in about a week.

It depends on exactly what type of cold it is. A runny nose, pressure on the face, no aches = sudafed or maybe claritin(maybe allergies, not a cold) \nAll of the above + aches = tylenol cold & flu\nStopped up nose = benadryl or other anithistimine\nLike I said - depends on what type of cold it is.

There is no cure for the cold. You just have to ride it out. You can take over the counter med., get plenty of rest, chicken noodle soup,plenty of liquids (water and/or juice). Maybe a soothing bath and/or shower to help you relax and feel good. Listen to some Soothing music.
