> [@hondaride22](#): > > o yea, benadryl does nothing at all but make you worse. Ehhhh… It does a good job of drying up runny sinuses and/or stopping sneezing and eye watering. It just makes most people groggy as fuck in the process, which makes for one awesome nap if you’ve got time or a miserable day if you don’t. 😛 ---

Here’s your over the counter fixes: > [@sedlmeier101](#): > > Runny/stuffy nose **- Antihistamine + Decongestant (Benadryl & Sudafed or Claritin D. I like Claritin because it makes me a bit less drowsy than benadryl. Go to the pharmacy counter to get real sudafed, or claritin with real sudafed - the D means it has sudafed in it)** > swollen/sore throat, sinus area. ( right where your nose exits to your throat) **- The antihistamine will help this, as phlegm on your throat is irritating as hell and likely causing your sore throat and the antihistamine will dry it up. Take Ibuprofen to take the edge out of the pain and knock the inflammation out of your sinuses.** > lack of energy. **- Sleep.** ---

BTW, on the issue of cold meds. If you want the real shit (i.e. Sudafed) you’ll have to go to the pharmacist and ask for it. They wont sell pseudoephedrine without a signature and ID anymore. ---

Yes, and that “new” Sudafed without pseudophedrine does NOT work at all. Take your cash to the toilet and flush it, it’ll have the same effect. ---
