I’ve gotten many such texts over the past few days:
“I’ve had cough and congestion for 3 days please send in an antibiotic. I don’t want to be sick for the holidays”

3-4 days of cough/congestion is viral 90% of the time. The key to getting rid of the cough before a bacteria sets in and it needs an antibiotic is the following:
Avoid decongestants and antihistamines (which thicken mucous)
Use mucinex either plain or DM (with cough suppressant)
Bump up the activity of your virus fighting cells with vitamin c 1000 mg a day, zinc 50 mg a day and vitamin d 5000 iu a day.
Drink a ton of fluids
Get more rest.
Avoid alcohol.

The signs that you need an antibiotic are cough/congestion not improving after 7-8 days, or you start to improve after 5-6 days and then get worse again.

Antibiotics are only harmful at this point.

To quote my non-medical husband: “want to not get a cold this time of the year - hop in a bubble”. 😂

Happy Holidays, dear friends. Hope it isn’t too sniffly. Tis a virus ridden world out there. 🤪
