How Can Cough And Cold Be Treated?
Is there an over the counter medicine I can take to stop coughing? I have a runny nose, not much congestion, a slight fever, and it hurts to cough. I do not have medical insurance so I need to buy something over the counter, Thank you. YYYY@YYYY

It seems to be viral or allergic fever.
Take over the counter Claritine (Loratidine)10 mg.
take Paracetamol ( Acetaminophen) or over the counter daytime Theraflu medicine for relief of symptoms without causing drowsiness.
To suppress cough take strepsils orfinger honey lozenges
if very productive cough take mucinex.
keep yourself well hydrated by drinking plenty of Gatorade or electrolytes along with Vitamin C drinks that help boost your immunity and overcome the illness.
