I wouldn't do the emergen-c because it is kind of carbonated. If you are taking Vitamins, I think you can take Vitamin c gummies or dissolving ones. Just don't do massive amounts.

I found an alcohol and sugar free cough Syrup that I took about that far out. It was a child's one but it helped.

I take Nyquil now at about 8.5 months out. It knocks me out really quickly!

sugar free cough drops are good too. I also do Thera-Flu and that helps me.

Maybe Zicam nasal spray?

Hope you are feeling better soon!

Try tea, lemon and honey. It's not meds but it does work

If you do honey and lemon, be very careful. The sugar from the honey can cause problems. Stevia or Splenda and lemon might be better.
