The common cold is actually a group of illnesses that can be caused by any one of more than 100 different viruses. While most symptoms of a cold are con fined to the head, nose, and throat, cold viruses can cause problems in the lungs as well. Since most colds are not serious threats to one’s health and often last no more than a week to ten days, self-care mea sures are important. Bed rest, extra fluids, humidification of the air, and good nutrition often help re duce the misery of a cold. Nonprescription medicines also may play an important role in overcoming the effects of a cold. More than 800 nonprescription cold medicines currently are available in the United States. An tihistamines. decongestants, ex pectorants (to help remove secre tions and phlegm from the respira tory passages), and cough medi cines commonly are used. But are nonprescription medicines of any value in relieving cold symptoms? Canadian medical researchers re cently studied over 100 articles published during the last 40 years. After careful review they con cluded that antihistamines and de congestants often were effective in adults and adolescents. However, in preschool children no benefit of nonprescription cold medicines could be found.
