Cold comfort

Article Abstract:

More than 50 million pounds sterling is spent every year in the UK on over the counter cold and flu remedies but such medicines can only relieve symptoms and may contain unneccesary drugs which are best avoided. Self-treatment of typical symptoms is recommended although a doctor's advise should be sought if they persist. Advice on medicines for self-treatment of cold and flu symptoms is discussed.
