Doctors and scientists have failed for hundreds of years to find a cure for the common cold... What makes you think a forum will change that?

Cold n' flu tablets from your local supermarket

All you can do is alleviate the symptoms. You can't 'get rid' of a cold, your body will fight it at whatever pace it will.

"lemsip max and 4-5000mg of vit C a day"

...wont make a blind bit of difference.

Lemsip is paracetamol and a bit of vitamin c. None of which cures anything but will make you feel a bit better. Save some pennies by buying unbranded drugs.

A cold is inconvenient but it will go away.

Open a window and get some fresh air. Lemon and honey as your doing, plenty of water (you get dehydrated when sweating,) some good skin lotion so your nose isn't really from tissues, and a hot toddie at night (if not driving or using machinery) use tissues not handkerchiefs,and wash hands every time you've had to blow your nose. And don't pass it on to others

I always drink sage tea, just get some fresh sage from the supermarket, if you don`t grow your own, and tear a few leaves up, add hot, not boiling as this affects the oils in the sage, sip whilst hot, it`s not a cure obviously, but it does pick you up. Get well soon

Echinacea can help minimise it, and I would make sure I was getting VitC and Zinc, but other than that you just have to ride it.

Sellotape a Dragon fruit to your forehead,and put hula hoops on each of your fingers. Stand in the frozen aisle at your local supermarket and sing Dolly Parton songs for 20 minutes. You will be fine instantly once you do this Honest

"Save some pennies by buying unbranded drugs"

So totally agree with this, paracetamol ibuprofen and similar do not differ in strength so there's no difference to a 15p pack and a £4 pack, other than placebo,

Open to be proven wrong but that's my understanding of them,
