drink lots of water...and before sleeping, gargle water mixed with a pinch of salt..it worked for me.
and don't suppress the phlegm (eewww)..if you're in a meeting or talking with someone, excuse yourself to puke that phlegm out..

Did you know that cough capsules can cause hemorrhage (bleeding of the brain)? Well yes, it’s true! Beware of the products that are cheap and well funded marketing. It’s a cheap way of getting dead sooner.

The problem with Cough Capsules are they contain chemical composition that is called phenylpropanolamine or PPA. It can cause hemorrhagic stroke mostly to women but men maybe also at risk. In the US, products that contains PPA has been banned already since 2000. But in Philippines, these products are still being sold to drug stores nationwide. What the heck, how did Philippine FDA approved it?

Short list of products that CONTAINS PPA:

* Decolgen
* Bioflu
* Desotap
* Neozep
* Sinutab
* Tuseran

Here are the following capsules that are poorly advertised product but are safe capsules and DOESN’T CONTAIN PPA.

* Bisolvon
* Loviscol
* Rubitussin

For more info about PPA, here’s an article from FDA of US which was published since Nov. 2000

ey guys, i rily need your help. i have a speech contest this monday and i'm developing a cough! my throat is really itchy and i think that by tomorrow i'll start expectorating phlegm! do you know of any medication that can cure my cough? it's still in its early stages and i dont want it to develop!!! pls guys!!

Get some OTC stuff that has this:
Dextromethorphan -- cough suppressant
Guaifenesin -- expectorant
Pseudoephedrine -- decongestant

Mas maayo gyud magpa doktor, para maka prescribe ug antibiotics, kay puede sintomas na siya of an infection...
