Unhappy Cold Medicine! What can I take?

I have a bad cold, have been sick for 4 days now. I have been drinking tea's, rubbing Vicks on my chest and back (even feet). I cannot smell nothing. I have been taking Desenfiol-ito for kids (it's this mexican cold medicine for kids), but it really doesn't work much. Any other suggestions?????

Veroliz,
I'm not sure how far out you are but I was coming down with something the other day and called Kelly. I asked if I could take Airborne. Well the office called me back and said that I can take any over the counter remedy. If I were you I'd call the office and ask them yourself. I hope you feel better soon.

You can pretty much take whatever remedy necessary.. but as you know it will only make you bear the cold better as there is no cure for the common cold. I have taken Nyquil and sugar free cough syrup..
