My dad's got a cold and he wanted Zicam Oral Mist. Until he heard "homeopathic."

So does anyone know what a chemical alternative to Zicam?

(If you've never heard of it, Zicam is a medicine supposed to shorten the length of a cold if used at the first sign.)

For the most part you really don't need any chemicals to treat this, at most some tylenol and decongestants

Nothing hastens a cold, you only ease the symptoms with the medications you take. You just have to wait till your body takes over the virus
