[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 268353, member: 84"] If it's a cold, antibiotics aren't really going to do you much good. I hate it when docs do that. Only way they'll help is if he was worried about it going into bacterial pneumonia. Demand the prescription cough syrup. It has codeine in it and will help to supress the cough long enough for you to catch some valuable sleep. Push the water, helps flush the system and thin the mucus a bit. Sometimes when I'm suffering from horrible post nasal drip due to a cold I'll go ahead and take my allergy medication (zyrtec) which helps to greatly decrease that post nasal drip. You need your sleep DDD, if your body is exhausted it's much harder to fight the bug off. Take good care of yourself. Hugs [/QUOTE]
