I always get the Halls Vitamin C drops. They give u the supply of vitamin c that you need and you can use them all day and they taste good too. I usually start taking them when I think im getting a cold and it usually goes away.

Answer 3

Get a sinus rinse or a netti pot, at any CVS or Walgreens through the drugstore. I used mine this week while I used to be getting ill, with the theraflu sinus and bloodless and zicam I used to be larger in two days. The sinus rinse is vital, flushes out your nasal passages and will get the entire crap out!
