There's not much you can do to cure it faster but Lemsip Max Strength capsules are really good at managing the symptoms.

Take a spoonful of honey for a sore/mucus-y throat. Drink plenty of fluids.

Honey and lemon in hot water and hot toddies can also help make you feel better. Some people swear curries and spicy food help. Some people say sweating it out in a gym helps it pass faster.

Otherwise it's down to helping your immune system battle the virus. Be sure you are getting the right nutrients and do what you can to help your immune system, such as staying warm.

That's not what it claims in the product info.

It's designed to kill the virus and prevent it infecting the tissue at the back of the nose and throat. Once the virus is established, it's too late.

It needs to be used as soon as possible, at the very first sign of a cold. That's what the manufacturers say anyway, unless they've changed their advice recently.

Trials showed it reduced symptom severity and duration when used early, before full onset.

There's nothing to suggest it's at all effective if used after the cold has developed so you may just have been lucky with yours. Your immune system beat it quickly.

I think taking First Defence once the cold is established is a waste of time. The clue is in the product name, First Defence. It doesn't attack colds, it defends against them.

There's nothing to suggest it's at all effective if used after the cold has developed so you may just have been lucky with yours. Your immune system beat it quickly.

I think taking First Defence once the cold is established is a waste of time. The clue is in the product name, First Defence. It doesn't attack colds, it defends against them.

OK, you think I'm talking about experience and the leaflet in the packaging....but I'm sure your rekkoning is far superior - congratulations, you win the internet and give the best advice....hooray for you!..... Better?"

If you read about how the product works - it has no active ingredients - you'll see why it's pointless once a cold has taken hold.

Great, you got had a cold that cleared up fast and you happened to be using First Defence at the same time. That's not evidence the two things are related. The clinical trials suggest they are not, unless you began taking First Defence before the cold took hold.

I'm telling you the results of the trials, not making random guesses based on a cold I had once and a leaflet I've misunderstood.

But yeah, based on a cold you once had and a leaflet you've misunderstood, your advice is definitely better and absolutely trumps the clinical trial.

"Vic's first defence spray is really effective

I swear by this stuff but you gotta catch it in the first day or two.. fends off a cold every time for me.. but still got pharyngitis lol. "

Apparently not. A man who once had a cold says there's no need to catch it early on.

"If you find a miracle cure let us know we too have a meet Friday and are full of colds..

Snot is not an attractive look

Especially when it just drips out without warning

Lie down all seductive, not on top in case you drip on him.

Wipe your nose on the pillow when doing doggy style.

If it's dark enough I can plug my nostrils with loo roll

"

Cut the tips off some tampax and shove those up there

I got first defense! I thought: yes! This shit is marvelous, and soon as i had that first sneeze and funny taste on the roof of my mouth out it came. I braced and *pshhhh* up it goes. .. 10 seconds go by.. nothing then: twitch of the eye, and 35 sneezes in a row ended my nose and airways. Coughing blood for days and the cold? Well i had just opened a nice door for it to ride me like no other. ..

If you didn't read all that: appears you can be allergic to it

I react badly to it too. It's how I would imagine squirting napalm up my nose would feel.

It's harsh stuff. Telling people to use it when it's too late to do any good, as above, is daft. It's not cheap either.

"Got a meet Friday that cannot be rescheduled and I'm full of a cold.

Need it gone. Will do anything. Witchcraft, sell my soul to the devil.

Miracles cold remedies please. "

If it hasn't ran its course, you'd probably be best cancelling. Unless the other party has a phlegm fetish..

"I find some cold n flu tablets about an hour before will dry it up temporarily. However by Friday it will be on its way anyway.

I hope so. Last one I had lasted nearly a fortnight

Sounds like your immune system isn't as strong as it should be lovely! I'm guessing you have a pretty healthy diet - but I'd suggest eating/drinking lots of vitamin C rich foods and drinks and taking vitamin supplements on a daily basis! Do you get enough rest/sleep?

I'm annoyingly lucky. Rarely get ill at all and never for more than a couple of days. Xx

No I dont get enough sleep especially not lately but not thru choice

Then I'd suggest night nurse liquid whilst you've got a cold! It has a sedative and works like a charm! You should wake up non-drowsy too! Xx"

I have no problem sleeping. My lad isn't keen tho! Plus he's had a chest infection and has,been coughing all night every night for nearly a month even a double course of antibiotics hasn't shifted it. So I've been up a lot with him.
