My 'everything but the kitchen sink' routine when I feel that first throat/nasal 'tickle' is oscillococcinum, CS, Sambucol (original formula) and Vit C. Except for the Vit C, I give it about 15 minutes between taking each product, holding them in my mouth as long as possible. And, knock on wood, I haven't had a cold in quite a few years now. I use the same on hubby and it works for him too. Just getting him to let me know when he feels that first tickle is the trick..lol. When I have been around someone with a cold, even if I don't feel like I am coming down with something, I often take a few doses of Airborne for a day or so, just as a precaution. Lola H.
