@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Hall’s cough drops fix just about everything. I usually just take the time I need to get over the cold or flu.

I stay away from all cold/flu meds. I have experienced they will reduce the effectiveness of your seizure meds.

When I get a little cold with cough and possible sore throat , I use HALLS cough drops.

Vick's vapor rub, tea and fluids. Most of the over the counter meds have alcohol and they don't interact with my meds ever in my life. I also stay vaxxed up and wear a mask when I know I will be around others. Some meds lower your immune to colds and flu even with the shot.

I went to the ER 2 days ago.. ✔️ everything they could. Decided it was bronchitis spawned by cat allergies. Now asthma going. Tons of sputum. I'm told that's good. I was given an inhaler and told to drink hot lemon water (i added tea) and
breath steam.
