Cough, Colds & Flu Medicine

Q: What's the difference between a common cold and the flu?

The flu is a different illness from a common cold. The flu, also known as influenza, makes you much sicker and comes on much faster. Although they share some of the same symptoms, the flu may also make bring on shaking chills, severe muscle and body aches, a moderate to high fever, severe fatigue that may last two weeks and nausea or vomiting.

Q: How can I prevent a cold?

You can implement good hygiene practices that will lessen the likelihood of catching a cold. Colds are mostly acquired due to touching an infected person or surface and then touching your face. Try to keep your hands clean and away from commonly touched surfaces.

Q: What medication can I use if I get a cold?

For common colds and coughs, you can use over-the-counter medications such as decongestants. These work by drying up your runny nose to ease breathing. You can also use paracetamol or other pain killers to help with your symptoms. For coughs, there are many treatments available including lozenges, syrups and drinks.

Q: What is the most common cause of a cough?

A cough is a way to clear the throat of mucus and foreign particles. The most common cause of a cough is a respiratory tract infection such as a cold or flu that is creating extra mucus in the throat.
