Zicam to the Rescue!

So Dena overcomes a week-long hacking phlegm-cough, and a day later I wake up with a sore throat and symptoms of a typical 7-day cold. Past routines have involved Sudafed, Nyquil, Halls cough drops... for 7 days. This time, I tried something new: Zicam tablets. Take one every three hours at the first onset of symptoms. Take on a full stomach, then don't drink or eat for 15 minutes. For two days, I was wiped out by the end of each work day, light-headed, the whole bit. On the third day I was cured! Zicam also comes in a spray and a nasal gel. Next time, I'm popping pills, baby!
