I have had the flu/cold for over a week and the only thing that works for me is the tylonel cold. That is what my doc said to take. I tried the rubitusson and it didn't do anything for me. Tea and honey as well as cough drops. I do not even have a voice left. I hope you do not get as bad as me trust me it is no fun.

Try hot tea with honey. Worked wonders for me when I had a sore throat. Then robitussin for the cough.
