Yes lots of prescription meds & over the counter stuff as a rule if you have a cold just plain old paracetamol & decongestant cough medicine a no no anti inflamatorys not good either ie things containing Ibuprofin! My husbands dietitian said no herbal or natural remedies either not unless you pass it with your gp! If in doubt consult your gp at stage 3 you want to keep it from getting any worse for as long as you can my hubby was stage 3 for aprox 16 years! x
